Summary: ""The Foundations of Social Intelligence" covers a wide range of the basic framework of cultural algorithms, from the history of its development to how other nature-inspired algorithms can be expressed. It also demonstrates how the social organizational structures that make up human socio-political systems can be modeled in terms of cultural algorithms. It explores how the learning process is expressed in thermodynamic terms as a cultural engine, while proposing several social metrics to assess their performance. Cultural algorithms are a computational framework for understanding human social evolution based upon anthropological and archaeological models of cultural evolution. The key is how we can we use cultural algorithms as a vehicle to understand why these building blocks are ubiquitous across the globe in computational terms. The performance of the basic social models are compared against each other relative to the different categories of complex systems problems"-- Provided by publisher.
