Individualism versus collective movement during travel [PDF]
Collective movement may emerge if coordinating one’s movement with others produces a greater benefit to oneself than can be achieved alone. Experimentally, the capacity to manoeuvre simulated groups in the wild could enable powerful tests of the impact ...

Collective Movement and Collective Information Acquisition With Signaling [PDF]
We consider a population of mobile agents able to make noisy observations of the environment and communicate their observation by production and comprehension of signals. Individuals try to align their movement direction with their neighbors.

Group size and composition influence collective movement in a highly social terrestrial bird [PDF]
A challenge of group-living is to maintain cohesion while navigating through heterogeneous landscapes. Larger groups benefit from information pooling, translating to greater ‘collective intelligence’, but face increased coordination challenges.

Habitat and social factors shape individual decisions and emergent group structure during baboon collective movement [PDF]
For group-living animals traveling through heterogeneous landscapes, collective movement can be influenced by both habitat structure and social interactions. Yet research in collective behavior has largely neglected habitat influences on movement.

Collective Synchronization of Undulatory Movement through Contact [PDF]
Many biological systems synchronize their movement through physical interactions. By far, the most well-studied examples concern physical interactions through a fluid: Beating cilia, swimming sperm and worms, and flapping wings all display ...

Energy conservation by collective movement in schooling fish [PDF]
Many animals moving through fluids exhibit highly coordinated group movement that is thought to reduce the cost of locomotion. However, direct energetic measurements demonstrating the energy-saving benefits of fluid-mediated collective movements remain ...

MODELLING OF COLLECTIVE MOVEMENT IN IMMERSIVE ENVIRONMENTS [PDF]
Immersive technologies allow us to map physical reality by means of 4D virtual systems in ever higher spatial and temporal detail, up to a scale level of 1 : 1.

Collective search in ants: Movement determines footprints, and footprints influence movement
Collectively searching animals might be expected to coordinate with their groupmates to cover ground more evenly or efficiently than uncoordinated groups. Communication can lead to coordination in many ways. Previous work in ants suggests that chemical ‘footprints’, left behind by individuals as they walk, might serve this function by modulating the ...

Commuter Mobility Patterns in Social Media: Correlating Twitter and LODES Data
The Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics Origin-Destination Employment Statistics (LODES) are an important city planning resource in the USA. However, curating these statistics is resource-intensive, and their accuracy deteriorates when changes in ...
