The approach is mainly practice-oriented: each bio-inspired technique or algorithm is introduced together with one of its possible applications. Applications cover a wide range of real-world optimization problems: from feature selection and image enhancement to scheduling and dynamic resource management, from wireless sensor networks and wiring network diagnosis to sports training planning and gene expression, from topology control and morphological filters to nutritional meal design and antenna array design. There are a few theoretical chapters comparing different existing techniques, exploring the advantages of nature-inspired computing over other methods, and investigating the mixing time of genetic algorithms. The book also introduces a wide range of algorithms, including the ant colony optimization, the bat algorithm, genetic algorithms, the collision-based optimization algorithm, the flower pollination algorithm, multi-agent systems and particle swarm optimization. This timely book is intended as a practice-oriented reference guide for students, researchers and professionalsSummary: From the content: The Nature of Nature: Why Nature Inspired Algorithms Work -- Improved Bat Algorithm in Noise-Free and Noisy Environments -- Multi-objective Ant Colony Optimisation in Wireless Sensor Networks.lePPN: PPN: 165757377XPackage identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-ENG
