Interacting with zebrafish using robotic agents

Francesco Mondada, Frank Bonnet, Bertrand Eric Collignon, Marcelo Elias de Oliveira

Identifying the communication channels inside a society of zebrafish could allow scientists to trigger specific behaviors on the animals to tests for instance the effect of a drug or a genetic mutation. We propose a robotic system to integrate the zebrafis ...

Bio-Inspired Decentralized Radio Access Based on Swarming Mechanisms Over Adaptive Networks

Ali H. Sayed

The goal of this paper is to study the learning abilities of adaptive networks in the context of cognitive radio networks and to investigate how well they assist in allocating power and communications resources in the frequency domain. The allocation mecha ...

Diffusion strategies for adaptation and learning over networks: an examination of distributed strategies and network behavior

Ali H. Sayed

Nature provides splendid examples of real-time learning and adaptation behavior that emerges from highly localized interactions among agents of limited capabilities. For example, schools of fish are remarkably apt at configuring their topologies almost ins ...

Sedimentation of macroscopic rigid knots and its relation to gel electrophoretic mobility of DNA knots

Giovanni Dietler, Cédric Weber, Andrzej Stasiak, Mathias Carlen

We address the general question of the extent to which the hydrodynamic behaviour of microscopic freely fluctuating objects can be reproduced by macrosopic rigid objects. In particular, we compare the sedimentation speeds of knotted DNA molecules undergoin ...

Role of fluid-density correlations in hydrodynamics: a multiparticle collision dynamics simulation study

Giuseppe Foffi, Maxim Belushkin

Hydrodynamic interactions play a pivotal role in the dynamical behaviour of mesoscale systems such as colloidal suspensions, yet isolating their contribution from other effects remains a key challenge. Hydrodynamic correlations within a fluid are a consequ ...

A scalable electro-magnetic communication system for underwater swarms

Felix Stephan Schill

Scalable, reliable underwater communication is still a major challenge limiting the deployment of large-scale cooperative underwater systems, such as swarms of AUVs, which generally rely on frequent updates from surrounding units for control and mission ob ...

Development of a mobile robot to study the collective behavior of zebrafish

Francesco Mondada, Philippe Rétornaz, Alexey Gribovskiy, Frank Bonnet

A robot accepted by animals as conspecifics is a very powerful tool in behavioral biology, particularly in studies of gregarious animals. In this paper we present a robotic zebrafish designed for experiments on the collective animal behavior. The robot con ...

Cooperative prey herding based on diffusion adaptation

Ali H. Sayed

Mobile adaptive networks consist of a collection of nodes with learning and motion abilities that interact with each other locally in order to solve distributed processing and distributed inference problems in real-time. In this paper, we develop adaptatio ...

Grouping trumps pooling and centroids in crowding

Michael Herzog, Bilge Sayim, Mauro Manassi

In the periphery, discrimination of a target is usually impaired by flanking elements. This crowding effect is often explained in terms of pooling, ie target and flanker signals are averaged. The pooling hypothesis predicts stronger crowding when more flan ...
