[embody] 7 Online application works on Swarm Intelligence, Pattern Recognition, Image Processing and Perception

[Vitorino RAMOS]

Dear Colleagues:

Seven recent works hybridizing novel algorithms in the Swarm Intelligence 
area with applications in Pattern Recognition, Perception, Image 
Processing, Image Analysis, Mathematical Morphology, Image Classification 
and retrieval are now online. Keywords subject areas are:  Swarm 
Intelligence, Perception and Image Processing, Pattern Recognition, 
Mathematical Morphology, Social Cognitive Maps, Social Foraging, 
Self-Organization, Distributed Search, among others. For those following 
research in similar areas or are somehow interest, here follows specific 
links, as well as direct PDF links:
