Dimo Brockhoff is a researcher at Inria, France, and member of the Randomized Optimization team that is co-located with Ecole Polytechnique, IP Paris. He studied computer science in Dortmund, Germany and received a Ph D from ETH Zurich, Switzerland for his work “Many-Objective Optimization and Hypervolume Based Search”. His research interests are focused on multiobjective optimization and benchmarking. Michael Emmerich is an Associate Professor at Leiden University and has recently also been an international research fellow at the University of Jyväskylä, Finland. At Leiden University he leads since 2011 the Multi-objective Optimization and Decision Analysis (MODA) research group. He received his doctorate in 2005 on the topic “Gaussian Process Models in Multiobjective Optimization” from TU Dortmund, Germany (promotor: Hans-Paul Schwefel). He chaired four leading international optimization conferences and five Lorentz center workshops. He published more than 200articles on multiobjective optimization, mainly indicator-based algorithms and Bayesian multiobjective optimization, and applications such as architectural design, logistics, and computational chemistry. Boris Naujoks is a professor of Applied Mathematics at TH Köln – Cologne University of Applied Sciences (THK). He joined THK directly after he received his Ph D from Dortmund Technical University in 2011. During his time in Dortmund, Boris worked as a research assistant in different projects and gained industrial experience working for different SMEs. Now, he enjoys the combination of teaching mathematics as well as computer science and exploring EC and CI techniques at the Campus Gummersbach of THK. He focuses on multiobjective (evolutionary) optimization, in particular hypervolume based algorithms, benchmarking, and the (industrial) applicability of such techniques. Robin Purshouse is Professor of Decision Sciences at the University of Sheffield, UK. He received his Ph D in Control Systems from the University of Sheffield in 2004 for his thesis “On the Evolutionary Optimisation of Many Objectives”, which was one of the earliest works on the topic of many-criteria optimization. He was General Chair of the Seventh International Conference on Evolutionary Multi-Criterion Optimization held in Sheffield in 2013. His research interests in multi-objective optimization are inspired by real-world problems and include robust optimization, surrogate-based optimization, and multi-disciplinary optimization.
