Steer'n Roll: A Stereoscopic Flow-Sensing Strategy for Planktonic Prey Detection and Capture
Tommaso Redaelli, Eva Kanso, Christophe Eloy
Planktonic organisms such as copepods sense swimming prey and sinking food particles through the hydrodynamic disturbances they generate. However, because these flow fields are oft…

Victoria A. Webster-Wood, Nicholas Gravish, Amir Alavi +37
This report provides a summary of the outcomes of the Interdisciplinary Workshop on Mechanical Intelligence held in 2024. Mechanical Intelligence (MI) represents the phenomenon tha…
Self-reorganization and Information Transfer in Massive Schools of Fish
Haotian Hang, Chenchen Huang, Alex Barnett +1
The remarkable cohesion and coordination observed in moving animal groups and their collective responsiveness to threats are thought to be mediated by scale-free correlations, wher…
Hierarchical equivariant graph neural networks for forecasting collective motion in vortex clusters and microswimmers
Alec J. Linot, Haotian Hang, Eva Kanso +1
Data-driven modeling of collective dynamics is a challenging problem because emergent phenomena in multi-agent systems are often shaped by long-range interactions among individuals…
