From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
American academic

Gerardo Beni (born Florence, Italy 21 February 1946) is aprofessor ofelectrical engineering atUniversity of California, Riverside who, with Jing Wang, is known as the originator of the termswarm intelligence[1][2] in thecontext ofcellular robotics and the concept ofelectrowetting,[3] withSusan Hackwood. He also devised, with Xuan-Li Xie, the Xie–Beni index[4] for measuring the validity offuzzy clustering.

He is the author of "From Swarm Intelligence to Swarm Robotics" in the bookSwarm Robotics[5]

Beni is married to Susan Hackwood. They have two children.

Education

[edit]

In 1970 Beni wasadmitted to theLaurea inphysics at theUniversity of Florence,Florence,Italy.[6]

In 1974, he received hisPhD intheoretical physics atUCLA.[6]

Academic career

[edit]

Beni hasresearchinterests in swarm intelligence,3D animation, andfinancial engineering.[7]

Before moving toUC Riverside, he worked atUC Santa Barbara andAT&T Bell Laboratories.[6]

He helped found theJournal of Robotic Systems, and between 1982 and 2005 he was also itsdirector. The journal won theJournal of the Year Award in 1984.[6]

In 1982, Beni was made aFellow of theAmerican Physical Society. In 1999, he became a Fellow of theAAAS.[6]
