This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Second International Conference on Learning and Intelligent Optimization, LION 2007 II, held in Trento, Italy, in December 2007. The 18 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 48 submissions for inclusion in the book. The papers cover current issues of machine learning, artificial intelligence, mathematical programming and algorithms for hard optimization problems and are organized in topical sections on improving optimization through learning, variable neighborhood search, insect colony optimization, applications, new paradigms, cliques, stochastic optimization, combinatorial optimization, fitness and landscapes, and particle swarm optimization.
