A Systematic Review on Particle Swarm Optimization Towards Target Search in The Swarm Robotics Domain.

Swarm Intelligence (SI) is one of the research fields that has continuously attracted researcher attention in these last two decades. The flexibility and a well-known decentralized collective behavior of its algorithm make SI a suitable candidate to be implemented in the swarm robotics domain for real-world optimization problems such as target search tasks. Since the introduction of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) as a representation of the SI algorithm, it has been widely accepted and utilized especially in local and global search strategies.
