Lecture 6D: Distributed AI and Swarm Intelligence, Part 4 - Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and friends (2020-03-23)

In this lecture, we continue to cover basic Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and some slight variations on the basic model that help improve performance and practicality of the approach. We use the social aggregation in PSO to motivate topics that will come up in the next few lectures on opinion dynamics and related dynamical phenomena that are less related to optimization and more related to consensus and stability in distributed groups.
