Handbook of Bioinspired Algorithms and Applications

by Stephan Olariu (Editor), Albert Y. Zomaya (Editor)

Overview

The mystique of biologically inspired (or bioinspired) paradigms is their ability to describe and solve complex relationships from intrinsically very simple initial conditions and with little or no knowledge of the search space. Edited by two prominent, well-respected researchers, the Handbook of Bioinspired Algorithms and Applications reveals the
