These transactions publish research in computer-based methods of computational collective
intelligence (CCI) and their applications in a wide range of fields such as the semantic Web
social networks and multi-agent systems. TCCI strives to cover new methodological theoretical
and practical aspects of CCI understood as the form of intelligence that emerges from the
collaboration and competition of many individuals (artificial and or natural). The application
of multiple computational intelligence technologies such as fuzzy systems evolutionary
computation neural systems consensus theory etc. aims to support human and other collective
intelligence and to create new forms of CCI in natural and or artificial systems. This
twenty-eight issue is a special issue with 11 selected papers from the International Conference
on Agents and Artificial Intelligence ICAART 2016 and 2017 editions.
