Swarm Intelligence -- Particle Swarm Optimization

Just like natural evolution that transformed all living creatures throughout history, machines can evolve and behave the same way! Unlike what most people would think, AI is not a new technology. However, it has undoubtedly evolved tremendously over the past years with the advancement in the training of deep artificial neural networks, primarily driven by the increase in available compute power which is necessary to train such networks for meaningful results. Swarm intelligence (SI), a sub-field of artificial intelligence, is the collective behavior of decentralized, self-organized systems. It does not require as much compute power as that needed for Deep Learning, but it can be employed in specific cases as a simple and efficient solution.
