Computational aesthetics is an area of research which attempts to develop computational methods that can perform human-like aesthetic judgements. Aesthetic judgements are often subjective, as such the development of computational models of aesthetics is highly challenging. This article summarises the advancements in the area of computational aesthetics and how computational intelligence techniques are applied in art and aesthetics ranging from simple classification problems to more advanced problems such as automatic generation of art artefacts, stories and simulations. The article concludes summarising major challenges that need to be addressed, and future directions that need to be undertaken in order to make significant advancements in the area of computational aesthetics and its applications.
