finding an optimal path for a robot in a soccer field involves different parameters such as the positions of the robot, positions of the obstacles, etc. due to simplicity and smoothness of ferguson spline, it has been employed for path planning between arbitrary points on the field in many research teams. in order to optimize the parameters of ferguson spline some evolutionary or intelligent al...

Swarm intelligence (SI) is an innovative distributed intelligent paradigm whereby the collective behaviors of unsophisticated individuals interacting locally with their environment cause coherent functional global patterns to emerge. The intelligence emerges from a chaotic balance between individuality and sociality. The chaotic balances are a characteristic feature of the complex system. This ...

A framework for incorporating a swarm intelligent system with the Dynamic Data Driven Application System (DDDAS) is presented. Swarm intelligent systems, or artificial swarms, self-organize into useful emergent structures that are capable of solving complex problems, but are difficult to control and predict. The DDDAS concept utilizes repeated simulations of an executing application to improve ...

This article introduces two swarm intelligent algorithms, a group search optimizer (GSO) and an artificial fish swarm algorithm (AFSA). A single intelligent algorithm always has both merits in its specific formulation and deficiencies due to its inherent limitations. Therefore, we propose a mixture of these algorithms to create a new hybrid optimization algorithm known as the group search-artif...

The work reported in this paper is motivated by the fact that there is a need to apply autonomic computing concepts to parallel computing systems. Advancing on prior work based on intelligent cores [36], a swarm-array computing approach, this paper focuses on ‘Intelligent agents’ another swarm-array computing approach in which the task to be executed on a parallel computing core is considered a...

This paper investigates the relation between chaos and swarm intelligence. The swarm intelligent model is represented as an iterated function system (IFS). The dynamic trajectory of the particle is sensitive on the parameter values of IFS. The Lyapunov exponent and the correlation dimension were calculated and analyzed. Our preliminary research results illustrate that the performance of the swa...
