Abstract

In this paper collective problem solving is explored by comparing the human group performance and swarm intelligence algorithms. The study involved thirty university students from different academic programs, aged between eighteen and thirty years were assigned comprised of three, five or seven-member groups. Spatial version (open field) of the traveling salesman problem was used. The participants’ performance was compared with the performance of algorithms collective intelligence of swarms. The results show some similarities between cognition and group cognition swarm in the mechanisms of information processing strategies of collective organization and patterns of choice or consensus strategies. En este trabajo se explora la solución colectiva de problemas mediante la comparación del desempeño grupal humano y los algoritmos de inteligencia de enjambres. En el estudio participaron treinta estudiantes universitarios de distintos programas académicos, con edades entre dieciocho y treinta años que fueron asignados en grupos conformados por tres, cinco o siete integrantes. Se utilizó una versión espacial (campo abierto) del problema del agente viajero. El desempeño de los participantes se comparó con la ejecución de algoritmos de inteligencia colectiva de enjambres. Los resultados muestran algunas semejanzas entre la cognición de grupo y la cognición de enjambre en los mecanismos de procesamiento de información, las estrategias de organización colectiva y las pautas de elección o estrategias de consenso.
