内容概要

  群体智能是通过模拟自然界生物群体行为来实现人工智能的一种方法。本书综合运用认知科学、社会心理学、人工智能和演化计算等学科知识,提供了一些非常有价值的新见解,并将这些见解加以应用,以解决困难的工程问题。书中首先探讨了基础理论,然后详尽展示如何将这些理论和模型应用于新的计算智能方法(粒子群)中,以适应智能系统的行为,最后描述了应用粒子群优化算法的好处,提供了强有力的优化、学习和问题解决的方法。 本书主要面向计算机相关学科的高年级本科生或研究生以及相关领域的研究与开发技术人员。

  《群体智能》由粒子群优化算法之父撰写,是该领域毋庸置疑的经典著作。作者提出,人类智能来源于社会环境中个体之间的交互,这种智能模型可以有效地应用到人工智能系统中去。书中首先从社会心理学、认知科学和演化计算等多个角度阐述了这种新方法的基础,然后详细说明了应用这些理论和模型所得出的新的计算智能方法——粒子群优化,进而深入地探讨了如何将粒子群优化应用于广泛的工程问题。群体智能是近年来发展迅速的人工智能学科领域。通过研究分散、自组织的动物群体和人类社会的智能行为,学者们提出了许多迥异于传统思路的智能算法,很好地解决了不少原来非常棘手的复杂工程问题。与蚁群算法齐名的粒子群优化(particle swarm optimizatiotl,简称PSO)算法就是其中最受瞩目、应用最为广泛的成果之一。《群体智能》的C及ViSLlaI Basic源代码可以在图灵网站《群体智能》网页免费注册下载。
