Self-organized Regulation of Group Size and Number in Natural and Artificial Collectives

The paper studies how collectives regulate group size and number using local information, showing that a decentralized fission-fusion mechanism can achieve stable convergence in simulations and matches observed behavior in wild coatis.

Closed-loop robotic interactions reveal dynamic social filtering in schooling fish

The paper uses a robotic fish to test interaction rules in schooling fish, showing that hydrodynamic interactions are critical for collective behavior.

Speed Synchrony Promotes Collective Motion in Mixed-Species Fish Schools

The paper shows that mixed-species fish schools exhibit collective motion through speed synchrony, despite differences in individual swimming behavior.

Decoding social integration in schooling fish using closed-loop real-virtual interactions

The paper uses a closed-loop virtual-reality system to study how schooling fish integrate social information, finding that fish primarily respond to the most influential neighbor.
