Journal Title：Swarm Intelligence

Swarm Intelligence is the principal peer-reviewed publication dedicated to reporting on research

and developments in the multidisciplinary field of swarm intelligence. The journal publishes

original research articles and occasional review articles on theoretical, experimental and/or

practical aspects of swarm intelligence. All articles are published both in print and in electronic

form. There are no page charges for publication. Swarm Intelligence is published quarterly.

The field of swarm intelligence deals with systems composed of many individuals that coordinate

using decentralized control and self-organization. In particular, it focuses on the collective

behaviors that result from the local interactions of the individuals with each other and with their

environment. It is a fast-growing field that encompasses the efforts of researchers in multiple

disciplines, ranging from ethology and social science to operations research and computer

engineering.

Swarm Intelligence will report on advances in the understanding and utilization of swarm

intelligence systems, that is, systems that are based on the principles of swarm intelligence. The

following subjects are of particular interest to the journal:

? modeling and analysis of collective biological systems such as social insect colonies, flocking

vertebrates, and human crowds as well as any other swarm intelligence systems;

? application of biological swarm intelligence models to real-world problems such as distributed

computing, data clustering, graph partitioning, optimization and decision making;

? theoretical and empirical research in ant colony optimization, particle swarm optimization,

swarm robotics, and other swarm intelligence algorithms.

《群體智能》是一份主要的同行評議出版物，專門報道群體智能多學科領域的研究和發展。該期刊發表關于群體智能理論、實驗和/或實踐方面的原創研究文章和偶爾的評論文章。所有文章均以印刷版和電子版形式出版。出版不收取版面費。《群體智能》每季度出版一次。群體智能領域涉及由許多個體組成的系統，這些個體使用分散控制和自組織進行協調。特別是，它關注的是集體行為，這些行為是由個體之間以及與環境之間的局部互動產生的。它是一個快速發展的領域，涵蓋了多個學科研究人員的努力，從動物行為學和社會科學到運籌學和計算機工程。群體智能將報告對群體智能系統的理解和利用方面的進展，即基于群體智能原理的系統。

本期刊特別關注以下主題：

? 集體生物系統的建模和分析，例如社會性昆蟲群落、群集

脊椎動物和人類群體以及任何其他群體智能系統；

? 生物群體智能模型在現實世界問題中的應用，例如分布式

計算、數據聚類、圖形分區、優化和決策；

? 蟻群優化、粒子群優化、

群體機器人和其他群體智能算法的理論和實證研究。

Swarm Intelligence創刊于2007年，由Springer US出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋COMPUTER SCIENCE, ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE - ROBOTICS全領域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所屬細分領域中專業影響力一般，過審相對較易，如果您文章質量佳，選擇此期刊，發表機率較高。平均審稿速度 12周，或約稿 ，影響因子指數2.1，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
