Swarm intelligence (SI) is a problem-solving methodology that results from the cooperation between a set of agents with similar characteristics. The study of biological entities, such as animals and insects, manifesting social behavior has resulted in several computational models of swarm intelligence. While there are numerous books addressing the most widely known swarm methods, namely ant colony algorithms and particle swarm optimization, those discussing new alternative approaches are rare. The focus on developments based on the simple modification of popular swarm methods overlooks the opportunity to discover new techniques and procedures that can be useful in solving problems formulated by the academic and industrial communities. Presenting various novel swarm methods and their practical applications, the book helps researchers, lecturers, engineers and practitioners solve their own optimization problems.Intelligent Systems Reference Library,1868-4408 ;160Computational intelligenceArtificial intelligenceComputational IntelligenceArtificial IntelligenceComputational intelligence.Artificial intelligence.Computational Intelligence.Artificial Intelligence.511.8518.1Cuevas Erikauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut761169Fausto Fernandoauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autGonzález Adriánauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910483212703321New Advancements in Swarm Algorithms: Operators and Applications2848916UNINA
