Description for Swarm Intelligence
Hardback. The laws that govern the behavior of social insect colonies continue to mesmerize researchers. Scientists have applied the behavior of social insects in new approaches to optimization and the control of robots. This field of research is referred to as swarm intelligence. This book provides an overview of swarm intelligence. Editor(s): Blum, Christian; Merkle, Daniel. Series: Natural Computing Series. Num Pages: 296 pages, 11 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: UYQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 241 x 167 x 24. Weight in Grams: 646.
Swarm intelligence is a modern arti?cial intelligence discipline that is c- cerned with the design of multiagent systems with applications, e.g., in - timization and in robotics. The design paradigm for these systems is fun- mentally di?erent from more traditional approaches. Instead of a sophisticated controller that governs the global behavior of the system, the swarm intelligence principle is based on many unsophisticated entities that cooperate in order to exhibit a desired behavior. Inspiration for the design of these systems is taken from the collective behavior of social insects such as ants, termites, bees, and wasps, as well as from ... Read more
