Self-Organization In 1-d Swarm Dynamics
نویسندگان
چکیده
Self-organization of a biologically motivated swarm into smaller subgroups of different velocities is found by solving a 1-dimensional adaptive-velocity swarm, in which the velocity of an agent is averaged over a finite local radius of influence. Using a mean field model in phase space, we find a dependence of this group-division phenomenon on the typical scales of the initial swarm in the position and velocity dimensions. Comparisons are made to previous swarm models in which the speed of an agent is either fixed or adjusted according to the degree of direction consensus among its local neighbors.

Quantifying evolutionary dynamics of swarm chemistry
This paper reports our recent efforts to quantitatively characterize the evolutionary dynamics of self-organizing patterns observed in Swarm Chemistry. Swarm Chemistry (Sayama 2009) is an artificial chemistry framework that can demonstrate self-organization of dynamic patterns of kinetically interacting heterogeneous particles. A swarm population in Swarm Chemistry consists of a number of simpl...
متن کاملGenerative design: a paradigm for design research
Generative design offers new modes of aesthetic experience based on the incorporation of system dynamics into the production of artifact and experience. In this paper, we review a number of processes that can be explored by designers and suggest how design as a discipline can benefit from this research. These processes include self-organization, swarm systems and ant colonies, evolution, and ge...
متن کاملSelf-Organized Pattern Formation in a Swarm System as a Transient Phenomenon of Nonlinear Dynamics
This paper presents a microscopic model (agent positions, directions, and interactions are explicitly modeled) of mobile agents (or self-propelled particles) that is inspired by the “complex transport networks” reported by Jones [1]. Here, the agents’ positions are modeled continuously. This multi-agent system (or artificial swarm) shows a wide variety of selforganized pattern formations. The s...
متن کاملSelf-Organization, Active Brownian Dynamics, and Biological Applications
After summarizing basic features of self-organization such as entropy export, feedbacks and nonlinear dynamics, we discuss several examples in biology. The main part of the paper is devoted to a model of active Brownian motion that allows a stochastic description of the active motion of biological entities based on energy consumption and conversion. This model is applied to the dynamics of swar...
متن کاملSelf-Organized Collective Decision-Making in a 100-Robot Swarm
We study a self-organized collective decision-making strategy to solve a site-selection problem using a swarm of simple robots. Robots can only move forward or turn in place; sense the intensity of the ambient light; and exchange 3-byte messages with peers in a limited range. The goal of the swarm is to collectively decide which of the sites available in the environment is the best candidate si...
