Swarm Embodiment - A New Way for Deriving Emergent Behavior in Artificial Swarms
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper concerns the emergent properties of collective ro-botic systems with imposed microscopic and macroscopic constraints. These constraints dramatically impact the emergent behavior of collective systems so that creating desired emergence becomes very challenged. In this paper we present the top-down swarm embodiment methodology that allows obtaining desired collective behavior in systematic way.

متن کاملThe Robot in the Swarm: An Investigation into Agent Embodiment within Virtual Robotic Swarms
This paper explores the notion of ‘degree of embodiment’ within the context of autonomous agent research, specifically within swarms of virtual robotic agents. Swarms of virtual robots with systematically varied degrees of embodiment are designed and implemented, and a 3D world created for them. Experimental simulations are then carried out wherein groups of these robots perform swarm tasks, an...
