Based on the interaction of individuals, particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a well-recognized algorithm to find optima in search space. In its canonical version, the trajectory of each particle is usually influenced by the best performer among its ...

Many animals use chemical substances known as pheromones to induce behavioural changes in other members of the same species. The use of pheromones by ants in particular has lead to the development of a number of computational analogues of ant colony ...

Computer simulation is a useful tool for investigating mathematical models of human muscle movement. These, in turn, can be used to help design equipment for sports activities. One biomechanics example is the simulation of a high-speed soccer kick. We ...
