Study on swarm dynamics converted into complex network

Abstract

In this study it is presented a summarization of our research of possible ways of creating of complex networks from the inner dynamics of Swarm Intelligence based algorithms. The particle swarm optimization algorithm and the firefly algorithm are studied in this paper. Several methods of complex network creation are proposed and discussed alongside with possibilities for future research and application. © ECMS Thorsten Claus, Frank Herrmann, Michael Manitz, Oliver Rose (Editors).
