ABSTRACT

Swarm intelligence is the area of problem-solving techniques which are inspired by the behavior of animals, natural or artificial. Some of the well-known swarm intelligence techniques are ant colony optimization, particle swarm optimization, fish schooling, bee’s algorithm and so on. To design such techniques, one must thoroughly study the reallife behavior of such promising animals, based on which, new such techniques can be devised. This paper represents such study of promising animals like dog, eagle, snake, chameleon, and cat. For all these animals, their behavioral aspects are briefly discussed. This can be a base for the one who would like to devise a completely new swarm intelligence-based techniques for solving optimization problems.
