Amphibian water to land transition reveals physical limits of olfaction
Martin James, Loranzie S. Rogers, Moreira Salsman +3
The evolutionary transition from water to land required animals to sense and respond to drastically different environments. Chemicals diffuse four orders of magnitude more slowly i…
Smart strategies to navigate turbulent odor plumes reorienting to local wind
Lorenzo Piro, Maurizio Carbone, Luca Biferale +4
Olfactory search in turbulent environments is a sensorimotor problem that many animals solve with remarkable efficiency, yet replicating this ability in artificial systems is an en…
Clock-state olfactory search in turbulent flows using Q-learning: The geometry of plume recovery
Marco Rando, Robin A. Heinonen, Yujia Qi +1
Finding an odor source in a turbulent flow requires effectively leveraging the history of olfactory observations into a robust navigation strategy. In this work, we use tabular Q-l…
Effect of swimming mode on shielding of odor traces in turbulence
Martin James, Francesco Viola, Agnese Seminara
Marine organisms manipulate their surrounding flow through their swimming dynamics, which affects the transport of their own odor cues. We demonstrate by direct numerical simulatio…
Learning to crawl: Benefits and limits of centralized vs distributed control
Luca Gagliardi, Agnese Seminara
We present a model of a crawler consisting of several suction units distributed along a straight line and connected by springs. The suction units are rudimentary proprioceptors-act…
Zero-information limit of a collective olfactory search model
Francesco Boccardo, Simone Di Marino, Agnese Seminara
We address the problem of how individuals can integrate efficiently their private behavior with information provided by others within a group. To this end, we consider the model of…
