ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
What is AI good for?

 There are the heavy artificial intelligence related methods such as machine
learning or neural networks
 BUT artificial intelligence is also useful for optimization-related problems
 Search algorithms
 Graph algorithms  BFS, DFS
 Heuristics
 Meta-heuristics  genetic algorithms, partical swarm optimization method and
simulated annealing
SWARM
INTELLIGENCE
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Swarm intelligence

 It is a collective behavior of self-organized sytems

 This is the so-called „emergence”  independent entities following very simple
rules can produce something quite complex !!!
 Swarm intelligence systems consist of a population of so-called agents
 These agents interact with each other locally + with the environment !!!
 The intuition comes from bioloogical systems
 For example: ant colony optimization or particle swarm optimization
Conway’s game of life

 It is a zero-player game  the evolution of the game is determined by its initial

state
 The rules are very very simple
 With these very simple rules extremely elaborate and complex patterns can occur
 Swarm intelligence is the same  the „agents” know nothing special
 They act independently
 But we are able to use these simple agents to solve complex problems !!!
