What is Swarm Intelligence: Introduction and Applications (Natural Computing Series) about?

Main subject categories: • Swarm intelligence • Artificial neural networks • Genetic algorithms • Topology of neural networksThe book’s contributing authors are among the top researchers in swarm intelligence. The book is intended to provide an overview of the subject to novices, and to offer researchers an update on interesting recent developments. Introductory chapters deal with the biological foundations, optimization, swarm robotics, and applications in new-generation telecommunication networks, while the second part contains chapters on more specific topics of swarm intelligence research.Swarm intelligence is a modern artificial intelligence discipline that is concerned with the design of multiagent systems with applications, e.g., in optimization and in robotics. The design paradigm for these systems is fundamentally different 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 a
