Aldeida works in the area of Search-Based Software Engineering (SBSE), with a particular focus on the methodological aspects of how to assess the effectiveness of these techniques. This includes fitness landscape characterisation to analyse how hard optimisation problems are for search techniques, and algorithm selection, which is about identifying which optimisation technique works in what scenario. Aldeida has served as PC member and organising committee at both SE and optimisation conferences, such as ASE 20, 21, ICSE 19, GECCO 17, 22, SSBSE 2018,19, FSE 22, ICSA 22.
