Produktinformationen zu „Swarm Intelligence “
The 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.
Klappentext zu „Swarm Intelligence “
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 the behavior of otheranimalsocietiessuchas?ocksofbirdsorschoolsof?sh.Coloniesofsocial insects have mesmerized researchers for many years. However, the principles that govern their behavior remained unknown for a long time. Even though the single members of these societies are unsophisticated individuals, they are able to achieve complex tasks in cooperation. Coordinated behavior emerges from relatively simple actions or interactions between the individuals.

Autoren-Porträt
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 now referred to as swarm intelligence, and it is characterized by a decentralized and probabilistic way of working, the key advantages being robustness and flexibility. This edited book is intended both as an overview of swarm intelligence and as a guide to the most interesting recent developments, and thus will be of interest to both novices and experienced researchers in the field. It successfully combines an overview of swarm intelligence with an up-to-date treatment of the advances in the field.

Pressezitat
From the reviews: "This book, edited by Christian Blum and Daniel Merkle, gives us the state of the art in this new and intriguing field of research, through a collection of eight chapters written by leading experts in the field. ... Overall, this book is successful in presenting how naturally inspired design differs from traditional approaches ... . an interesting read for researchers, to learn the latest developments in this fascinating field, and also for beginners, to get an introduction to swarm intelligence topics and applications." (Alessandro Berni, ACM Computing Reviews, June, 2009)
