Particle Swarm: From Cornfield Vectors to Cognitive Radio
Dr. Russell Eberhart, CTO Phoenix Data Corporation, in Indiana, USA (Plenary Speaker @ CISDA 2012 – http://ieee-cisda.org – Ottawa, Canada), will be giving a plenary talk that will be broadcast as webinar. The talk is entitled: “Particle Swarm: From Cornfield Vectors to Cognitive Radio” and will be given on Wednesday, July 11, 8:30AM-10:00AM EDT.
Abstract:
Particle swarm optimization has evolved from modeling social systems to applications for security and defense. Engineering applications for estimating battery state of charge and optimizing container port yard planning were among early successes. Applications to the fields of extended analog computing and biomedical engineering are ongoing. A recent focus has emerged in the fields of security and defense applications. Included are developments in unmanned vehicle mission planning optimization, intelligent traffic barrier networks, and resource allocation optimization for cognitive radio.
Biography:
Russell C. Eberhart is the CTO of Phoenix Data Corporation, Indianapolis, Indiana. He is also Professor Emeritus of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology, Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI). He was formerly Vice President and CTO of Computelligence, LLC. He received his Ph.D. from Kansas State University in electrical engineering. He is co-editor of a book on neural networks (1991), and co-author of Computational Intelligence PC Tools, published in 1996 by Academic Press. He is co-author of a book with Jim Kennedy and Yuhui Shi entitled Swarm Intelligence, published by Morgan Kaufmann in 2001. He is the co-author, with Yuhui Shi, of a book entitled Computational Intelligence: Concepts to Implementations, published in August 2007 by Morgan Kaufmann/Elsevier. He was awarded the IEEE Third Millenium Medal. In January 2001, he became a Fellow of the IEEE. He was elected a Fellow of the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering in 2002. He has been awarded four U. S. Patents, and is co-inventor for another pending patent. He has done ground-breaking work in applying swarm intelligence to human tremor analysis, sleep disorders medicine, evolutionary analog computing, logistics, spectrum warfare, and optimization of resource allocation.
