Bio-Inspired Metaheuristics

International Journal of Organizational and Collective Intelligence, 2020
In real life, problems becoming more complicated, among them NP-Hard problems. To resolve them, two families of methods exist, exact and approximate methods. When exact methods provide the optimal solution in an unacceptable amount of time, the approximate ones provide good solutions in a reasonable amount of time.

Bio-inspired Robotics

2022
The fields of artificial intelligence and bio-inspired robotics have proven to cross several other fields of expertise including Cognitive Neuroscience. Here, we review principles of interaction between a natural (or artificial) organism and the environment where it lives. Then we ask whether such structural coupling shapes the way it behaves.

Robotizing the Bio-inspiration

2018
Imitating natural living beings remains a perpetual curiosity of human beings. The pursuit of replicating biological systems led humans to develop contemporary machines—the robots with diverse range of shapes, sizes, capabilities and applications. Such systems may exhibit strength, control and operation sustainability; however, rigidness of the hard ...

Bio-inspired telecommunications

Proceedings of the 11th Annual Conference Companion on Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference: Late Breaking Papers, 2009
The rapid advances in computing and transmission technologies are giving impetus to the large-scale deployment of interconnected systems for communication and transport of data, voice, video and resources. The global Internet, and cellular, satellite, and Wi-Fi networks, as well as power and logistic networks, just to mention a few remarkable examples,

Bio-inspired optics

SPIE Proceedings, 2003
Combining bio-inspired optical designs with new materials -- that have a capability to dynamically change index of refraction - may provide new capabilities and increased system performance. This paper discusses recent interest in mimicking some of the adaptive features of biological imaging systems, identifies new optical materials being developed ...

Bio-inspired Polymers

2016
Many key aspects of life are based on naturally occurring polymers, such as polysaccharides, proteins and DNA. Unsurprisingly, their molecular functionalities, macromolecular structures and material properties are providing inspiration for designing new polymeric materials with specific functions, for example, responsive, adaptive and self-healing ...

Bio-inspired vision

Journal of Instrumentation, 2012
Nature still outperforms the most powerful computers in routine functions involving perception, sensing and actuation like vision, audition, and motion control, and is, most strikingly, orders of magnitude more energy-efficient than its artificial competitors.

Bio-inspired adhesion

Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology, 2013
In the last decade, naturally occurring adhesives, those occurring at the feet of insects, lizards, frogs, and spiders have motivated a large number of investigations because of their many attracti...

Combining Bio-inspired Sensing with Bio-inspired Locomotion

2011
In this paper we present a preliminary Braitenberg vehicle–like approach to combine bio-inspired audition with bio-inspired quadruped locomotion in simulation. Locomotion gaits of the salamander–like robot Salamandra robotica are modified by a lizard’s peripheral auditory system model that modulates the parameters of the locomotor central pattern ...
