Abstract The term “nature-inspired” is associated with a sequence of efforts to understand, synthesize and imitate any natural object or phenomenon either in tangible intangible form, which allows us obtain improved insights into nature. Such inspirations can come through materials, processes, designs that we see around us. Materials, as opposed processes found nature, are readily be used witho...

The electric grid is being increasingly integrated with renewable energy sources whose output mostly fluctuating in nature. load demand also increasing day by day, mainly due to the increased interest vehicles and other automated devices. An management system helps maintaining balance between available generation thus optimizes usage. It reducing peak load, green-house gas emissions, operationa...

healthcare professionals usually should make complex decisions with far reaching consequences and associated risks in health care fields. as it was demonstrated in other industries, the ability to drill down into pertinent data to explore knowledge behind the data can greatly facilitate superior, informed decisions to ensue the facts. nature has always inspired researchers to develop models of ...

Swarm robotics is a new approach to the coordination of multirobot systems which consist of a number of simple physical robots [1]. It is supposed that a desired collective behavior emerges from the interaction between the robots and the interaction of robots with the environment. This approach emerged in the field of artificial swarm intelligence as well as the biological study of insects, ant...

Automatic satellite image registration for multi-sensor images is becoming increasingly important to aid in flood damage assessment. We consider two images, the one before flood (optical image) and the other during flood (SAR image) in the registration process. The objective is to maximize the similarity metric (of these two images) using information theoretic measures such as Mutual Informatio...
