Swarm Intelligence and Bio-Inspired Computation Summary

Swarm Intelligence and Bio-Inspired Computation: Theory and Applications by Xin-She Yang (School of Science and Technology, Middlesex University, UK)

Swarm Intelligence and bio-inspired computation have become increasing popular in the last two decades. Bio-inspired algorithms such as ant colony algorithms, bat algorithms, bee algorithms, firefly algorithms, cuckoo search and particle swarm optimization have been applied in almost every area of science and engineering with a dramatic increase of number of relevant publications. This book reviews the latest developments in swarm intelligence and bio-inspired computation from both the theory and application side, providing a complete resource that analyzes and discusses the latest and future trends in research directions. It can help new researchers to carry out timely research and inspire readers to develop new algorithms. With its impressive breadth and depth, this book will be useful for advanced undergraduate students, PhD students and lecturers in computer science, engineering and science as well as researchers and engineers.

Swarm Intelligence and Bio-Inspired Computation Reviews

"Civil and other engineers, mathematicians, computer scientists, and other contributors summarize the current status of biologically inspired computation and swarm intelligence, looking at both fundamentals and applications of algorithms based on swarm intelligence and other biological systems." --Reference and Research Book News, August 2013
