Clustering Behavior of a Bio-inspired Decentralized Aggregation Scheme
Résumé
This note reviews a bio-inspired scheme for aggregating autonomous agents in the absence of global communication or coordination, a problem that is known as Decentralized Gathering. We present results on the clustering behavior of the agents, as we vary the main parameter that controls the agents' aggregation. Our observations show that there exist two phenomenologically different behaviors, characterized by two different evolutions of the number of clusters with time. We relate these different behaviors to different scales of significance of the fluctuations that appear in the model. We relate these different behaviors to the coupling of two factors: a change in the scale of the interaction range of the agents and a change in the significance of the local fluctuations in the model.
