Swarm Intelligence

Deutsch: Schwarmintelligenz / Español: Inteligencia de enjambre / Português: Inteligência de enxame / Français: Intelligence essaim / Italiano: Intelligenza di sciame

Swarm Intelligence represents a paradigm in artificial intelligence and optimization that draws inspiration from the collective behavior of decentralized, self-organized systems found in nature. This concept has gained significant traction in transport, logistics, and mobility, where complex problems often require adaptive, scalable, and robust solutions. By mimicking the coordinated actions of social insects, bird flocks, or fish schools, Swarm Intelligence enables systems to solve challenges without centralized control, relying instead on local interactions and simple rules.
