Towards which Representation? by Roberto de Rubertis

“…The first question we ask ourselves, coherently with what is requested of us, is, in fact, how we stand today in the context of an evolution that has important repercussions even on teaching –if there has actually been an evolution– and how we relate to its undeniable metamorphoses or, more properly, “mutations” as Darwin would call them. …”

Parallel Swarms Oriented Particle Swarm Optimization by Tad Gonsalves, Akira Egashira

“…In this paper, we propose a variation of the algorithm called parallel swarms oriented particle swarm optimization (PSO-PSO) which consists of a multistage and a single stage of evolution. In the multi-stage of evolution, individual subswarms evolve independently in parallel, and in the single stage of evolution, the sub-swarms exchange information to search for the global-best. …”
