Effective leadership in competition

Hai-Tao Zhang, Ning Wang, Michael Z. Q. Chen +2

Among natural biological flocks/swarms or even mass social activities, when the collective behaviors of the followers has been dominated by the moving direction or opinion of one l…

Predictive protocol of flocks with small-world connection pattern

Hai-Tao Zhang, Michael Z. Q. Chen, Tao Zhou

By introducing a predictive mechanism with small-world connections, we propose a new motion protocol for self-driven flocks. The small-world connections are implemented by randomly…

Improving the consensus performance via predictive mechanisms

Hai-Tao Zhang, Guy-Bart Stan, Michael ZhiQiang Chen +2

Considering some predictive mechanisms, we show that ultrafast average-consensus can be achieved in networks of interconnected agents. More specifically, by predicting the dynamics…

Synchronized Collective Behavior via Low-cost Communication

Hai-Tao Zhang, Michael ZhiQiang Chen, Tao Zhou

An important natural phenomenon surfaces that satisfactory synchronization of self-driven particles can be achieved via sharply reduced communication cost, especially for high dens…

Comment on "Novel type of phase transition in a system of self-driven particles"

Michael Z. Q. Chen, Hai-Tao Zhang

This paper uncovers a pitfall in the phase transition mechanism of Vicsek et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 75, 1226 (1995)] which occurs with fairly high probability and leads to complete…
