Abstract:
Swarm intelligence (SI) algorithms, a collection of population-based optimization algorithms, have been being designed and researched to solve problems which are very difficult, if not impossible, for traditional optimization approaches such as hill-climbing approaches to solve. Most existing SI algorithms are nature-inspired and/or bio-inspired, especially are inspired by objects with low level intelligence. Inspired by the brainstorming process, the brain storm optimization (BSO) algorithm, which is a new population-based swarm intelligence algorithm, was developed. In this talk, the brainstorming process will be introduced first, followed by the development of the brain storm optimization algorithm; then new advances on BSO will be presented; finally, the BSOs will be looked at from the developmental learning perspective.
摘要：在国务院颁发的《新一代人工智能发展规划》中，群体智能是其中的核心内容之一。人工智能的核心是优化与学习。群体智能侧重于优化，它主要被用来解决那些传统优化方法所不能解决的优化问题。群体智能由许多基于个体群的优化算法组成。这些基于个体群的优化算法一般是受自然或者生物体的群体所涌现出的超出任何单一个体所能呈现的复杂、智能行为的启发而设计的。这些生物个体一般都是低智能生物体，而它们的群体通过一种内在的局部交互作用，起到一定的个体间的协作与竞争，从而涌现出全局智能行为。人是自然界具有最高智能的生物体，因而基于人的群体智能行为直观上应能设计出更加智能化的群体智能优化算法。头脑风暴是我们常用来集体解决单一个人无法解决的复杂困难问题的一种集思广议方法。它体现了人的群体智能行为。头脑风暴优化算法就是受集思广议方法之一的头脑风暴方法启发而设计出的一个新的群体智能优化算法。在本讲座中，我们将从头脑风暴方法出发逐步引道出头脑风暴优化算法，最后再从发展式学习的角度来进一步认识头脑风暴优化算法。
