ANTS 2022
13th International Conference on Swarm Intelligence
November 2-4, 2022. Malaga, Spain

Scope of the Conference
=======================================================================
Swarm intelligence is the discipline that deals with the study of
self-organizing processes both in nature and in artificial systems. Researchers
in ethology and animal behavior have proposed a number of models to explain
interesting aspects of collective behaviors, such as movement coordination,
shape-formation, and decision making. Recently, algorithms and methods inspired
by these models have been proposed to solve difficult problems in many domains.
Among these, we particularly mention ant colony optimization (ACO) and particle
swarm optimization (PSO), focusing respectively on discrete and continuous
optimization problems. Another field of techniques derived from swarm
intelligence is swarm robotics with focus on designing collaborative
multi-robot systems that show high degrees of robustness and scalability. With
ANTS 2022 we want to give researchers in swarm intelligence the opportunity to
meet, to present their latest research, and to discuss current developments and
applications. The three-day conference will be held for the first time in
Malaga, Spain, on November 2-4, 2022.
=======================================================================
Relevant Research Areas
=======================================================================
ANTS 2022 solicits contributions dealing with any aspect of swarm intelligence.
Typical, but not exclusive, topics of interest are:
- behavioral models of social insects or other animal societies that can
stimulate new algorithmic approaches
- theoretical and empirical research in swarm intelligence
- application of swarm intelligence methods (e.g., ant colony optimization,
particle swarm optimization) to real-world problems
- theoretical and experimental research in swarm robotics systems
