A new Science #Robotics study describes BioPD—a control strategy that can mimic how zebrafish swim together and implement them in #autonomous #vehicles for coordinated movements. @icouzin https://t.co/guoyLNpfzv

[Liang Li @LiangLi52]

Very excited to share our recent work on an interpretable and general data-driven algorithm for decoding the state of underwater swimming robots using onboard artificial lateral line sensors, recently published in Nature Communications: [link https://t.co/eCwLSK1Xfu]

Locust swarms call for a rewrite of the swarming rules. Take a look at our field, lab, VR and modeling study of locusts in @ScienceMagazine ! https://t.co/w790sd8g4J

[Iain Couzin @icouzin]

Virtual reality rewrites the rules of the swarm. Our latest paper in @ScienceMagazine @maxplanckpress @UniKonstanz @CBehav https://t.co/qEc6Zhva4v

Modelling collective animal behaviour through optimality theory?

In our latest article, @DrJimminy and I propose 3 questions – analogous to Tinbergen's 4 questions – that are critical to applying optimality theory in collective animal behaviour
