Metaheuristic
Term by definition
Methods that optimize a problem by iteratively trying to improve a candidate solution, given a measure of quality. They make few or no assumptions about the problem and can search large spaces of solutions.
E&PRiskIV
During the development of Module Neural E&PRiskIII, it was observed that a point "critical" in a good performance Module Neural regarding the ability to forecast total operating time with respect to quality of historical data that are used for training neural network and that are in a database provided by the user. If the training set is not sufficiently representative with respect to alternatives for various conditions and operating parameters of drilling / completion, the neural network will have its capacity for generalization greatly impaired resulting in inaccurate forecasts or even incorrect. It is intended then research and development of intelligent techniques and automated data mining applied to databases of drilling / completion in order to reduce or withdraw the us...
RCSUEX - Certainty Representation of the Exploratory Success
The process involves drilling for oil in their interpretation and decision phase, the analysis of information and a number of factors. A lot of this information is subject to imperfections of various kinds (knowledge incomplete, imprecise and uncertain), which makes this process full of doubts and u...
E&PRiskIII
This project aims to research, develop and implement methods for risk analysis and prediction of drilling and completion operations in oil wells ..

Officialy founded at may 5th of 2000, this lab combines researchers of Computer Sciences at various fields such as: Artificial Neural Networks, Evolutionary Computation, Game Theory and Logic. Aimed at studying the cognition emergence by Nature inspired paradigms, starting by connectionism making a bridge between symbolic, connectionist and evolutive approaches of Artificial Intelligence. More than a workplace, the lab intends to be a group of researchers linked by common interests without physical frontiers.
