Various clustering methods based on the behavior of real ants have been proposed. In this paper, we develop a new algorithm in which the behavior of the artificial ants is governed by fuzzy set. Firstly, we define the average distance between objects, and the average distance is the domain of the object similarity. Secondly, the similarity between objects is mapped a domain of fuzzy sets by membership...
The study on the bearing capacity and settlement is important to a project. It is useful and concrete to develop a model with some intelligent methods in artificial intelligence area for the prediction of some big structure projects. The validity of the models has been proved by some civil engineering practices. Therefore, the research of bearing capacity and settlement characteristics of rigid pile...
We describe a distributed algorithm for coordinating a swarm of homogeneous robots to explore an unknown area using only local interaction. The basic movement rule is based on the gas dispersion model. To avoid duplication exploring, we introduce a new strategy called SMARK to leave signpost in explored area. Consequently this system have three outstanding features: (1) The swarm of robots coordinate...
