Socially mediated speciation.
We employ a simple model to show that social selection can lead to prezygotic reproductive isolation. The evolution of social discrimination causes the congealing of phenotypically similar individuals into different, spatially distinct tribes. However, tribal formation is only obtained for certain types of social behavior: altruistic and selfish acts can produce tribes, whereas spiteful and mut...
متن کاملAre Gender Differences in Performance Innate or Socially Mediated?1
To explain persistent gender gaps in market outcomes, a lab experimental literature explores whether women and men have innate differences in ability (or attitudes or preferences), and a separate field-based literature studies discrimination against women in market settings. We posit that even if women have innate ability that is comparable to that of men, their relative performance may suffer ...
متن کامل"Look out!": Socially-Mediated Obstacle Avoidance in Collective Transport
In this paper, we present a novel methodology to perform collective transport in the presence of obstacles. Three robots are physically connected in a semicircle around an object to be transported from a start to a goal location. The task poses two main challenges. First, the presence of both a goal and obstacles requires appropriate negotiation of the direction among the members of the group. ...
متن کاملSocially mediated induction and suppression of antibiosis during bacterial coexistence.
Despite their importance for humans, there is little consensus on the function of antibiotics in nature for the bacteria that produce them. Classical explanations suggest that bacteria use antibiotics as weapons to kill or inhibit competitors, whereas a recent alternative hypothesis states that antibiotics are signals that coordinate cooperative social interactions between coexisting bacteria. ...
متن کاملCollective Transport with Obstacle Avoidance through Socially-Mediated Negotiation
In this dissertation we present a novel negotiation strategy that allows different robots to perform collective transport in the presence of obstacles. The coordination of the different robots involved can be difficult, as their sensor perceptions can be different or conflicting. For example, at a given moment, one robot perceives only the goal direction, another perceives an obstacle to avoid ...
