Product Description
This is the first book devoted entirely to Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), which is a non-specific algorithm, similar to evolutionary algorithms, such as taboo search and ant colonies. Since its original development in 1995, PSO has mainly been applied to continuous-discrete heterogeneous strongly non-linear numerical optimization and it is thus used almost everywhere in the world. Its convergence rate also makes it a preferred tool in dynamic optimization. |

| Ant Colony Optimization (Bradford Books)
by Marco Dorigo (Author), Thomas Stützle (Author)
The complex social behaviors of ants have been much studied by science, and computer scientists are now finding that these behavior patterns can provide models for solving difficult combinatorial optimization problems. The attempt to develop algorithms inspired by one aspect of ant behavior, the ability to find what computer scientists would call shortest paths, has become the field of Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), the most successful and widely recognized algorithmic technique based on ant...

| Fundamentals of Computational Swarm Intelligence
by Andries P. Engelbrecht (Author)
Fundamentals of Computational Swarm Intelligence provides a comprehensive introduction to the new computational paradigm of Swarm Intelligence (SI), a field that emerged from biological research, and is now picking up momentum within the computational research community. Bio-inspired systems are becoming increasingly important research areas for computer scientists, engineers, economists, bioinformaticians, operational researchers, and many other disciplines. This book introduces the reader to...

| Swarm Intelligence (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Artificial Intelligence)
by Russell C. Eberhart (Author), Yuhui Shi (Author), James Kennedy (Author)
Traditional methods for creating intelligent computational systems have
privileged private "internal" cognitive and computational processes. In
contrast, Swarm Intelligence argues that human
intelligence derives from the interactions of individuals in a social world
and further, that this model of intelligence can be effectively applied to
artificially intelligent systems. The authors first present the foundations of
this new approach through an extensive review of the...

| Differential Evolution: A Practical Approach to Global Optimization (Natural Computing Series)
by Kenneth V. Price (Author), Rainer M. Storn (Author), Jouni A. Lampinen (Author)
Problems demanding globally optimal solutions are ubiquitous, yet many are intractable when they involve constrained functions having many local optima and interacting, mixed-type variables. The Differential Evolution algorithm (DE) is a practical approach to global numerical optimization that is easy to understand, simple to implement, reliable and fast. Packed with illustrations, computer code, new insights and practical advice, this volume explores DE in both principle and practice. It is...

| Multi-Objective Optimization Using Evolutionary Algorithms (Wiley Paperback)
by Kalyanmoy Deb (Author)
The Wiley Paperback Series makes valuable content more accessible to a new generation of statisticians, mathematicians and scientists. Evolutionary algorithms are very powerful techniques used to find solutions to real-world search and optimization problems. Many of these problems have multiple objectives, which leads to the need to obtain a set of optimal solutions, known as effective solutions. It has been found that using evolutionary algorithms is a highly effective way of finding...
