A new role: Topic Editor for MDPI’s Entropy
Today, I officially became Topic Editor of MDPI’s journal Entropy. Entropy is an international, interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed, monthly, open access journal about… entropy and information studies. Entropy is characterized by an impressive acceptance-to-publication speed (median: 2.7 days); the current impact factor of 2.5, and it is on the rise. This is my first experience as editor. …
IEEE WCCI: triplete!
This year, the IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence (WCCI) will be held in Glasgow, UK. The WCCI embeds three major IEEE conferences related to Computational Intelligence, that is: The International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (IJCNN) The International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE) The World Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC) This year, I had …
New (feature) paper published on Entropy
How to smooth out the fitness landscapes by means of Fourier transforms?
New paper about Dynamic Fuzzy Modeling accepted on Bioinformatics
Many years ago we started a cooperation with the Department of Biotechnology and Biosciences of the University of Milano-Bicocca. The goal was to govern programmed cell death on K-ras cancer cells under conditions of glucose starvation. Glucose is directly related to metabolism, i.e., glycolysis and TCA cycle in mitochondria, which in turn determine the production …
ProCell’s redesign
Designer Luca Zanini created a completely renewed GUI and user experience for ProCell. This is how the new interface looks like: The new interface of ProCell (which now reached version 1.6.0) has an elegant dark skin and has got an improved usability thanks to additional functionalities, a more rational use of colors and a new …
New paper published in PaCT 2019’s proceedings
The PaCT conference (Parallel Computing Technologies) is a biennial event focused on the new developments and trends in parallel computing technologies. We presented some papers in the previous editions, mainly focusing on GPU-powered (biochemical) simulation [1], [2], [3]. This year we submitted a manuscript focused on something completely different, that is, the GPU-powered automatic extraction …
FST-PSO release 1.6.0
Fuzzy Self-Tuning PSO was upgrade to version 1.6.0. The source code can be downloaded from GITHUB, and the python package can be easily installed using pip. This is the first release officially supporting Python 3. I managed to solve some pending issues with the packaging system, and I fixed miniful’s support (even though I am …
Best Paper Award at IEEE CIBCB’19
In early July, I presented our joint research with the European Institute of Oncology (IEO) at the 2019 IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence in Computational Biology and Bioinformatics (CIBCB 2019). The paper, titled “ProCell: Investigating cell proliferation with Swarm Intelligence”, focuses on the investigation of AML blasts by means of ProCell, the stochastic modeling and …
New paper accepted on IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems
We use Fuzzy Logic to create interpretable models of heterogeneous cellular systems characterized by uncertainty…
Benchmark functions vs parameter estimation: new paper accepted on Applied Soft Computing
For some real world problems, common algorithms can outperform the most advanced meta-heuristics.
