Gerardo Beni is a professor of electrical engineering at University of California, Riverside who, with Jing Wang, is known as the originator of the term 'swarm intelligence' [1][2] in the context of cellular robotics and the concept of 'electrowetting' ,[3] with Susan Hackwood. He also devised, with Xuan-Li Xie, the Xie-Beni Index [4] for measuring the validity of fuzzy clustering.

He is the author of 'From Swarm Intelligence to Swarm Robotics' in the book Swarm Robotics[5]

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

Education

In 1970 Beni was admitted to the Laurea in physics at the University of Florence, Florence, Italy.[6]

In 1974, he received his PhD in theoretical physics at UCLA.[6]

Academic career

Beni has research interests in swarm intelligence, 3D animation, and financial engineering.[7]

Before moving to UC Riverside, he worked at UC Santa Barbara and AT&T Bell Laboratories.[6]

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

In 1982, Beni was made a Fellow of the American Physical Society. In 1999 he became a Fellow of the AAAS.[6]

Patents

Beni has been issued, either alone or in conjunction with other inventors, several patents from the USPTO:[8]

  • Method and apparatus for object positioning while at UC Santa Barbara.
  • Object analysis of multi-valued images while at UCSB, together with J Wang.
  • ... (incomplete list)
