AI Analysis

This is an incremental review of existing algorithms for researchers in optimization and swarm intelligence.

The article reviews a class of swarm intelligence algorithms called social algorithms, which use multiple agents and social interactions to mimic biological systems like ants and bees for solving optimization problems.

This article concerns the review of a special class of swarm intelligence based algorithms for solving optimization problems and these algorithms can be referred to as social algorithms. Social algorithms use multiple agents and the social interactions to design rules for algorithms so as to mimic certain successful characteristics of the social/biological systems such as ants, bees, bats, birds and animals.
