The CAOS group (Laboratory for Control, Learning, and System Optimization) is a leading research team within the Department of Computer Science at Carlos III University of Madrid (UC3M). It was founded in 2004 and was previously part of the Scalab group.<\/p>\n

Our work focuses on artificial intelligence, machine learning, data analysis, predictive control, optimization, artificial neural networks, pattern recognition, evolutionary computing, agent-based modeling, and time series forecasting.<\/p>\n

One of the CAOS group\u2019s strengths is its practical focus and its ability to transfer knowledge to the private sector; it has developed Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) for urban environments, creating software based on classifier ensembles for the efficient, real-time identification of traffic signs.<\/p>\n
