Introduction to Swarm Intelligence
Speaker: Russ Eberhart
Affiliation: Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis
Description: The tutorial provides an overview of swarm intelligence, with a focus on particle swarm optimization. The tutorial begins with a brief review of dynamic social impact theory, and of evolutionary computation. This is followed by an introduction to particle swarm optimization (PSO) and the evolution of PSO concepts and paradigms. PSO features and processes are then discussed, followed by a review of PSO applications. Evolving neural networks with PSO is described. Finally, tracking and optimizing dynamic systems with PSO are reviewed, including a demonstration.
