This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Evolutionary Computation in Combinatorial Optimization, EvoMUSART 2018, held in Parma, Italy, in April 2018, co-located with the Evo*2017 events EuroGP, EvoCOP and EvoApplications. The 21 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 33 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics and application areas, including: generative approaches to music and visual art; medical art therapy; visualization in virtual reality; jewellery design; interactive evolutionary computation; and the art theory of evolutionary computation.
