Résumé : This paper provides technical and conceptual information on a swarm art project called Sleep Paintings.
The project consists of a series of colour images generated by an ant-based clustering algorithm operating with sleep
data sets extracted from electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. The algorithm was originally proposed for clustering and
classification and is described by a simple set of equations that model the local behavior of artificial ants (data samples)
in a way that, when travelling on a heterogeneous 2-dimensional lattice of vectors, they form clusters of similar data
samples, while changing the vectors of the environmental lattice. The 2-dimensional colored abstract sketches of human
sleep described in the paper result from the visualization of the lattice.
