This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Learning and Intelligent Optimization, LION 12, held in Kalamata, Greece, in June 2018. The 28 full papers and 12 short papers presented have been carefully reviewed and selected from 62 submissions. The papers explore the advanced research developments in such interconnected fields as mathematical programming, global optimization, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. Special focus is given to advanced ideas, technologies, methods, and applications in optimization and machine learning.
