Swarm Intelligence

From Natural to Artificial Systems

by Eric Bonabeau, Marco Dorigo, Guy Theraulaz ...

Series series Santa Fe Institute Studies on the Sciences of Complexity
Social insects--ants, bees, termites, and wasps--can be viewed as powerful problem-solving systems with sophisticated collective intelligence. Composed of simple interacting agents, this intelligence lies in the networks of interactions among individuals and between individuals and the environment. A fascinating subject, social insects are also a powerful metaphor for artificial intelligence, and ... Read more

Analysis and Enumeration

Algorithms for Biological Graphs

by Andrea Marino ...

Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
In this work we plan to revise the main techniques for enumeration algorithms and to show four examples of enumeration algorithms that can be applied to efficiently deal with some biological problems modelled by using biological networks: enumerating central and peripheral nodes of a network, enumerating stories, enumerating paths or cycles, and enumerating bubbles. Notice that the corresponding ... Read more
