  2. Swarm intelligence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swarm_intelligence

    Swarm Intelligence-based techniques can be used in a number of applications. The U.S. military is investigating swarm techniques for controlling unmanned vehicles. The European Space Agency is thinking about an orbital swarm for self-assembly and interferometry. NASA is investigating the use of swarm technology for planetary mapping.

  3. Ant colony optimization algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ant_colony_optimization...

    This algorithm is a member of the ant colony algorithms family, in swarm intelligence methods, and it constitutes some metaheuristic optimizations. Initially proposed by Marco Dorigo in 1992 in his PhD thesis, [ 6 ] [ 7 ] the first algorithm was aiming to search for an optimal path in a graph, based on the behavior of ants seeking a path ...

  4. Swarm robotics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swarm_robotics

    The design of swarm robotics systems is guided by swarm intelligence principles, which promote fault tolerance, scalability, and flexibility. [1] Unlike distributed robotic systems in general, swarm robotics emphasizes a large number of robots. While various formulations of swarm intelligence principles exist, one widely recognized set includes:

  5. Dispersive flies optimisation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersive_Flies_Optimisation

    Dispersive flies optimisation (DFO) is a bare-bones swarm intelligence algorithm which is inspired by the swarming behaviour of flies hovering over food sources. [1] DFO is a simple optimiser which works by iteratively trying to improve a candidate solution with regard to a numerical measure that is calculated by a fitness function .

  6. Artificial bee colony algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_Bee_Colony...

    In the ABC algorithm, the first half of the swarm consists of employed bees, and the second half constitutes the onlooker bees. The number of employed bees or the onlooker bees is equal to the number of solutions in the swarm. The ABC generates a randomly distributed initial population of SN solutions (food sources), where SN denotes the swarm ...

  7. Fireworks algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fireworks_Algorithm

    The Fireworks Algorithm (FWA) is a swarm intelligence algorithm that explores a very large solution space by choosing a set of random points confined by some distance metric in the hopes that one or more of them will yield promising results, allowing for a more concentrated search nearby.

  8. Bacterial colony optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacterial_colony_optimization

    The bacterial foraging algorithm (BFA) is a biologically inspired swarm intelligence optimization approach that mimics bacteria's foraging activity to gather the most energy available throughout the search phase. Since its introduction in 2002, it has garnered widespread interest from scholars.

  9. Evolutionary computation - Wikipedia
