Percolating Swarm Dynamics

Abstract

Swarm Intelligence has been a successful approach to solve some combinatorial problems through the metaphor of interacting evolving individuals of a a population P in a closed torus-like space S. Each individual usually perceives an space sorrounding it which can be generally modelled as disk of radius R. In this paper we discuss that Percolation conditions can be key to allow convergence to reach the optimal results of these kind of systems.
