Recent Development of Application of Swarm Intelligence in Multi-agent System
Zhong Dong · 2012
Swarm intelligence algorithm is a kind of distributed method originated from collective behaviors of social insects.Its application in multi-agent systems aims to improve the robustness,flexibility and adaptability.Taking the application of swarm intelligence in multi-agent system as masterstroke,this paper discussed the critical mechanisms of swarm intelligence,and then summarized and discussed current study works of swarm intelligence applied in multi-agent communication,multi-agent cooperation,multi-agent learning and multi-agent architecture.At last,this paper analyzed and discussed some problems in current research and showed some preliminary points.
