Ensemble Feature Extraction for Multi-Container Quality-Diversity Algorithms

Leo Cazenille

Quality-Diversity algorithms search for large collections of diverse and high-performing solutions, rather than just for a single solution like typical optimisation methods. They a…

Exploring Self-Assembling Behaviors in a Swarm of Bio-micro-robots using Surrogate-Assisted MAP-Elites

Leo Cazenille, Nicolas Bredeche, Nathanael Aubert-Kato

Swarms of molecular robots are a promising approach to create specific shapes at the microscopic scale through self-assembly. However, controlling their behavior is a challenging p…

Automatic Calibration of Artificial Neural Networks for Zebrafish Collective Behaviours using a Quality Diversity Algorithm

Leo Cazenille, Nicolas Bredeche, José Halloy

During the last two decades, various models have been proposed for fish collective motion. These models are mainly developed to decipher the biological mechanisms of social interac…

Evolutionary optimisation of neural network models for fish collective behaviours in mixed groups of robots and zebrafish

Leo Cazenille, Nicolas Bredeche, José Halloy

Animal and robot social interactions are interesting both for ethological studies and robotics. On the one hand, the robots can be tools and models to analyse animal collective beh…

How to Blend a Robot within a Group of Zebrafish: Achieving Social Acceptance through Real-time Calibration of a Multi-level Behavioural Model

Leo Cazenille, Yohann Chemtob, Frank Bonnet +4

We have previously shown how to socially integrate a fish robot into a group of zebrafish thanks to biomimetic behavioural models. The models have to be calibrated on experimental…

Loose social organisation of AB strain zebrafish groups in a two-patch environment

Axel Séguret, Bertrand Collignon, Leo Cazenille +2

We explore the collective behaviours of 7 group sizes: 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10 and 20 AB zebrafish (Danio rerio) in a constraint environment composed of two identical squared rooms conne…

Collective departures in zebrafish: profiling the initiators

Bertrand Collignon, Axel Séguret, Yohann Chemtob +2

For animals living in groups, one of the important questions is to understand what are the decision-making mechanisms that lead to choosing a motion direction or leaving an area wh…

Automated optimisation of multi-level models of collective behaviour in a mixed society of animals and robots

Leo Cazenille, Nicolas Bredeche, José Halloy

Animal and robotic collective behaviours can exhibit complex dynamics that require multi-level descriptions. Here, we are interested in developing a multi-level modeling framework…
