Effects of heterogeneous social interactions on flocking dynamics

MC Miguel, JT Parley, R Pastor-Satorras - Physical review letters, 2018 - APS
Social relationships characterize the interactions that occur within social species and may
have an important impact on collective animal motion. Here, we consider a variation of the …

Randomness in the choice of neighbours promotes cohesion in mobile animal groups

V Jadhav, V Guttal, DR Masila - Royal Society Open …, 2022 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Classic computational models of collective motion suggest that simple local averaging rules
can promote many observed group-level patterns. Recent studies, however, suggest that …

Complex network structure of flocks in the Standard Vicsek Model

G Baglietto, EV Albano, J Candia - Journal of Statistical Physics, 2013 - Springer
In flocking models, the collective motion of self-driven individuals leads to the formation of
complex spatiotemporal patterns. The Standard Vicsek Model (SVM) considers individuals …

[HTML][HTML] Goals and limitations of modeling collective behavior in biological systems

NT Ouellette, DM Gordon - Frontiers in Physics, 2021 - frontiersin.org
Local social interactions among individuals in animal groups generate collective behavior,
allowing groups to adjust to changing conditions. Historically, scientists from different …

Collective dynamics in the Vicsek and vectorial network models beyond uniform additive noise

V Mwaffo, RP Anderson, M Porfiri - Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2015 - Springer
In this work, we analyze the coordination of interacting individuals in two nonlinear
dynamical models that are subject to a new form of noise. Specifically, we propose …

Interaction ruling animal collective behavior depends on topological rather than metric distance: Evidence from a field study

M Ballerini, N Cabibbo, R Candelier… - Proceedings of the …, 2008 - National Acad Sciences
Numerical models indicate that collective animal behavior may emerge from simple local
rules of interaction among the individuals. However, very little is known about the nature of …

Interaction network effects on position-and velocity-based models of collective motion

AE Turgut, İC Boz, İE Okay… - Journal of the Royal …, 2020 - royalsocietypublishing.org
We study how the structure of the interaction network affects self-organized collective motion
in two minimal models of self-propelled agents: the Vicsek model and the Active-Elastic (AE) …

Spatially balanced topological interaction grants optimal cohesion in flocking models

M Camperi, A Cavagna, I Giardina… - Interface …, 2012 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Models of self-propelled particles (SPPs) are an indispensable tool to investigate collective
animal behaviour. Originally, SPP models were proposed with metric interactions, where …

Efficient flocking: metric versus topological interactions

V Kumar, R De - Royal Society open science, 2021 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Flocking is a fascinating phenomenon observed across a wide range of living organisms.
We investigate, based on a simple self-propelled particle model, how the emergence of …

Incorporating uncertainty into the study of animal social networks

D Lusseau, H Whitehead, S Gero - arXiv preprint arXiv:0903.1519, 2009 - arxiv.org
Over the past decade network theory has been applied successfully to the study of a variety
of complex adaptive systems. However, the application of these techniques to non-human …
