Experience-dependent modulation of collective behavior in larval zebrafish

This study shows that larval zebrafish adjust their group behavior based on past experiences with population density, using a state-space model to predict these changes.

Collective Behavior in Medaka Fish Depends on Discrete Kinematic States of Swimming Behavior

This study identifies three kinematic states in Medaka fish swimming and shows how social information processing varies across these states, leading to coordinated group behavior.

Precise visuomotor transformations underlying collective behavior in larval zebrafish

The paper studies how larval zebrafish transform visual inputs from neighbors into movement decisions during schooling behavior, finding that young larvae use averaging and winner-take-all strategies, while mature fish incorporate attraction to low retinal clutter.
