Abstract: The artificial immune system is a new computational intelligence technique that has been investigated for the past decade. By reviewing the literature, two observations were found that could affect the network learning process. First, most researchers do not focus on Paratop-Epitop and Paratop-Idiotop interactions within the network. Second, most researchers depict the interaction within the network with all the network components present from the beginning until the end of the learning process. In this research, efforts were devoted to deal with the aforementioned observations. The findings were able to differentiate between interactions in a node within a network, and total interactions in the network. A small simulation problem was used to show the effect of choosing a steady number of antibodies during network interactions. Results showed that a considerable number of interactions could be saved during network learning, which will lead to faster convergence. In conclusion, it is believed that the designed model is ready to be used in many applications. Therefore, it is recommend the use of our model in different applications such as controlling robots in hazardous rescue environment to save human lives.
