The IEEE Swarm Intelligence Symposium

The IEEE Swarm Intelligence Symposium is an academic conference focused on studying how simple, decentralized systems—like ant colonies, bird flocks, or robotic swarms—can work together to solve complex problems. Researchers gather to share insights on designing algorithms inspired by nature’s collective behaviors, which can improve things like optimization, robotics, and network systems. The symposium promotes collaboration between scientists and engineers, advancing the understanding of how groups of agents coordinate efficiently without central control, leading to innovative solutions in technology and artificial intelligence.
