Review # 1 was written on 2007-10-19 00:00:00 Cheryl Hill I used this guy's algorithm in my PhD without fully understanding it. With my viva looming, I set about understanding what the algorithm actually did. I was expecting a technical overview of how to fine tune parameters, test convergence, avoid getting stuck at local optima etc. He starts by tracking cognitive science research over time. Initially the behaviourists pretended minds didn't exist. Then the cognitive psychologists introduced the mind as a mediator between stimulus and response. But thinking was very much an internal process. Bandura begins to overturn this research program in the 1960s by showing humans can learn by watching others. Slowly, slowly the social aspects of cognition were accepted by mainstream researchers. Then he also weaves together a nice history of the progression of AI research, the shortcomings of neo-darwinism and memetics, the problematic status of simulation, etc. But he tells this story within the framework of the PSO algorithm. It is an inspirationally good interdisciplinary work. "The evolution of ideas involves changes in the states of minds that hold ideas, not changes in the ideas themselves; it is a search'by minds'through the universe of ideas, to find the fitter ones" 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
