Mine Interests

Genetic Programming (GP)In artificial intelligence, genetic programming (GP) is an evolutionary algorithm-based methodology inspired by biological evolution to find computer programs that perform a user-defined task.

It is a specialization of genetic algorithms (GA)

where each individual is a computer program.

Swarm Intelligence (SI)

Web linksBiomimicry Abounds in the Bay Area

Swarm intelligence (SI) is the collective behaviour of decentralized, self-

organized systems, natural or artificial.

The concept is employed in work on artificial

intelligence.

Ant Colony OptimizationMine Interests

The ant colony optimization algorithm (ACO) is a probabilistic technique for solving computational problems which can be reduced to finding good paths through graphs.

A classic example of the construction of a pheromone trail in the search for a shorter path is shown in Figure 2 and was first presented by Colorni et al. (1991). In Figure 2A there is a path between food and nest established by the ants. In Figure 2B an obstacle is inserted in the path. Soon, ants spread to both sides of the obstacle, since there is no clear trail to follow (Figure 2C). As the ants go around the obstacle and find the previous pheromone trail again, a new pheromone trail will be formed around the obstacle. This trail will be stronger in the shortest path than in the longest path, as shown in Figure 2D.

“Shorter paths can be completed quicker and more frequently by the ants, and will therefore be marked with higher pheromone intensity.”
