About this book

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Bioinspired Optimization Methods and Their Applications, BIOMA 2020, held in Brussels, Belgium, in November 2020.

The 24 full papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 68 submissions.

The papers in this BIOMA proceedings specialized in bioinspired algorithms as a means for solving the optimization problems and came in two categories: theoretical studies and methodology advancements on the one hand, and algorithm adjustments and their applications on the other.

Due to the Corona pandemic BIOMA 2020 was held as a virtual event.
