Flocking Behavior

نویسنده

  • Daniel Sinkovits
چکیده

Flocking is the phenomenon in which self-propelled individuals, using only limited environmental information and simple rules, organize into an ordered motion. This ordering even occurs at two dimensions where ordering is not possible equilibrium systems. This paper will explain the biological and physical motivation for studying flocking, and the computational, theoretical, and experimental efforts undertaken to explore this phenomenon.

From Particle to Kinetic and Hydrodynamic Descriptions of Flocking

We discuss the Cucker-Smale’s (C-S) particle model for flocking, deriving precise conditions for flocking to occur when pairwise interactions are sufficiently strong long range. We then derive a Vlasov-type kinetic model for the C-S particle model and prove it exhibits time-asymptotic flocking behavior for arbitrary compactly supported initial data. Finally, we introduce a hydrodynamic descript...

Predicting and Controlling System-Level Parameters of Multi-Agent Systems

Boid flocking is a system in which several individual agents follow three simple rules to generate swarm-level flocking behavior. To control this system, the user must adjust the agent program parameters, which indirectly modifies the flocking behavior. This is unintuitive because the properties of the flocking behavior are nonexplicit in the agent program. In this paper, we discuss a domain-in...

Self-organized flocking with a mobile robot swarm

This paper studies self-organized flocking in a swarm of mobile robots. We present a mobile robot platform developed specifically for swarm robotic studies briefly describing its sensing and communication abilities. In particular, we describe a scalable method that allows the robots to sense the orientations of their neighbors using a digital compass and wireless communication. Then we propose ...

Illustration of Centralized Command and Control for Flocking Behavior

Flocking is a term that describes the behavior of a group of birds (a “flock”) in flight, or the swarming behavior of insects. This paper presents detailed information about how to use the flocking techniques to control a group of embedded controlled systems ‘’Boids’’such as ground systems (robotic vehicles/ swarm robots). Each one of these systems collectively moves inside/outside of a buildin...
