About the Book:
Innovative Nature-inspired Techniques for Solving Complex Problems (NatureTech2021) is an edited book (multi-authored book) to be published at Studies in Computational Intelligence (SCI), Springer book series (Approval Awaited). Innovative applications of nature-inspired techniques for solving complex real-world problems have grown manifold in recent years, covering almost all engineering and science disciplines. On the technological front, many new algorithms are designed by taking inspirations from different natural phenomena, resulting in some of the popular algorithms such as Genetic Algorithm (GA) based on Darwin’s principle of survival of the fittest, Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) based on the foraging behaviour of ants, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based on the behaviour of birds flocking in swarms and many more. On the application front, irrespective of the source of inspirations, nature-inspired algorithms are suitable for most of the challenging applications dealing with current complexities of life in this 21st century. This book strives to cover some of the major problems of application domains such as Engineering, Computer Science, Social Sciences, and Natural Sciences. Special attention is drawn to the technical fields of Machine learning, Deep learning, Robotics, Natural Language Processing, Image Processing, Bioinformatics, IOT and Industrial application, as well as Operation Research and Logistics. The book primarily focuses on the practical challenges that are faced while applying nature-inspired algorithms to specific problems of above mentioned application areas.
