DOI: 10.1109/jas.2020.1003129
Abstract: Robots in a swarm are programmed with individual behaviors but then interactions with the environment and other robots produce more complex, emergent swarm behaviors. One discriminating feature of the emergent behavior is the local distribution… read more here.
