Swarm Intelligence Optimization Algorithms and Their Application
... Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a swarm intelligence method based on the ability of groups. Particle swarm optimization was found for the first time by Kennedy in 1995. Particle swarm algorithm simulates the behavior of law birds foraging and courtship process. In real life, we often see flocks ...

The motivation for this is that a good value selection heuristic can guide us to a feasible solution effectively no matter how badly we happen to partition the search space. The idea is not unlike the motivation behind adaptive multistart metho ...

... bottom-up approach [Hansen et al., 2004]. Policy trees were constructed incrementally, but instead of successively coming closer to the frontiers of the trees, this algorithm starts at the frontiers and works its way up to the roots using dynamic programming (DP). The policy trees for each agent are ...

... Ui : Ω → R, i, ..., n The central concept in game theory is that of a Nash equilibrium. An assignment of strategies to players is a Nash equilibrium, if for each player, for fixed strategies of his opponents, changing his current strategy cannot increase his payoff. The formal definition will be giv ...
