What is Swarm Intelligence (SI)? “The emergent collective intelligence of groups of simple agents.”
group foraging of social insects cooperative transportation division of labour nest-building of social insects collective sorting and clustering
The computer revolution changed human societies: Communication Transportation Industrial production Administration, writing and bookkeeping Technological advances Entertainment However, some problems cannot be tackled with traditional hardware and software!
Computing tasks have to be :Well-defined Fairly predictable Computable in reasonable time with serial computers.
Well-defined, but computational hard problems NP hard problems (Travelling Salesman Problem) Action-response planning (Chess playing)
DNA
based computing (chemical computation) is inspired by the human evolution. Artificial neural network is a simplified model of human brain. Bio-computing(simulation of biological mechanisms).
1. Self-Organization is based on:
Positive feedback(amplification) Negative feedback (for balancing) Amplification of fluctuations(random walks, errors) Multiple interactions
2. Stigmergy:Indirect communication via interaction with environment.
Species lay chemical substance pheromone while travelling from nest, to nest or possibly in both directions.
Pheromones evaporate.
Pheromones accumulate with multiple ants using same path.
The natural behavior of these ants and be programmed into an ant algorithm, which we can use to find the shortest path within graphs.
As ants move they leave behind a chemical substance called pheromone, which other ants can smell and identify that an ant has been there before.
distributed system of interacting autonomous agents goals: performance optimization and robustness self-organized control and cooperation (decentralized) division of labor and distributed task allocation indirect interactions
It is a 3-step process. Identification of analogies: in swarm biology and IT systems. Understanding: computer modeling of realistic swarm biology. Engineering: model simplification and tuning for IT applications.
Complex
NP complete problems. Vehicle routing. Network maintenance. The traveling salesperson. Computing the shortest route between two points.
Learning algorithms developed with artificial intelligence systems such as neural networks but imperfections and inefficiencies in both the hardware and software have prevent reliable results. Genetic algorithms also made an attempt at these problems, and had some success. The algorithms were considered too complex to re-implement.

Visit cities in order to make sales. Save on travel costs. Visit each city once (Hamiltonian circuit).
If there are N cities, then the number of different paths among them is 1.2……(N-1).
Time to examine single path = N.
Total time to perform the search = (N-1)!
For 10 cities, time reqd. = 10! = 3,268,800.
Use of agents for TSP problem. They sense and dispense pheromone. Memory to back step through the graph. Each agent starts at a random starting city. Once agent finishes a tour, it determines the size of the tour. Then pheromone is added to the tour, the shorter the tour, the higher the pheromone level.
No guarantee that the first tour the
agents will converge the shortest path. Agents explore other tours. The “stray” agent finds a shorter path. Adjusts the pheromone levels. Plenty of computing time needed to converge on the optimal tour. The ant algorithm approach will still solve faster than other algorithms.
Vehicle
routing is similar to the TSP problem. Employee services the client by going to them. Minimize cost. Use the same optimal Hamiltonian circuit as in the TSP problem.
The
economy is an example of SI that most researchers forget to consider. SI demonstrates complex behavior that arises from simple individual interactions. No one can control the economy, as there are no groups that can consistently control the economy.
The reaction of the population causes the the economy to slow down.
Simulating an economy using ant algorithms.
Makes it possible to control or predict the ebb and flow of this complex behavior.
Swarm intelligence, is still in its infancy.
A project such as simulating the economy is still far beyond the its capability.
Scientists are realizing SI’s potential.
The use of ant algorithms within computing systems has helped to solidify swarm intelligence’s place in the computing world.
Already researchers are observing other social animals, such as bees and schools of fish in order to utilize it in future applications and algorithms.
