Swarm intelligence algorithms are a form of nature-based
optimization algorithms. Their main inspiration is the cooperative
behavior of animals within specific communities. This can be
described as simple behaviors of individuals along with the
mechanisms for sharing knowledge between them, resulting in the
complex behavior of the entire community. Examples of such behavior
can be found in ant colonies, bee swarms, schools of fish or bird
flocks. Swarm intelligence algorithms are used to solve difficult
optimization problems for which there are no exact solving methods
or the use of such methods is impossible, e.g. due to unacceptable
computational time. This book thoroughly presents the basics of 24
algorithms selected from the entire family of swarm intelligence
algorithms. Each chapter deals with a different algorithm
describing it in detail and showing how it works in the form of a
pseudo-code. In addition, the source code is provided for each
algorithm in Matlab and in the C ++ programming language. In order
to better understand how each swarm intelligence algorithm works, a
simple numerical example is included in each chapter, which guides
the reader step by step through the individual stages of the
algorithm, showing all necessary calculations. This book can
provide the basics for understanding how swarm intelligence
algorithms work, and aid readers in programming these algorithms on
their own to solve various computational problems. This book should
also be useful for undergraduate and postgraduate students studying
nature-based optimization algorithms, and can be a helpful tool for
learning the basics of these algorithms efficiently and quickly. In
addition, it can be a useful source of knowledge for scientists
working in the field of artificial intelligence, as well as for
engineers interested in using this type of algorithms in their
work. If the reader already has basic knowledge of swarm
intelligence algorithms, we recommend the book: "Swarm Intelligence
Algorithms: Modifications and Applications" (Edited by A. Slowik,
CRC Press, 2020), which describes selected modifications of these
algorithms and presents their practical applications.
