In the Dance Studio: An Art and Engineering Exploration of Human Flocking

Naomi E. Leonard, George F. Young, Kelsey Hochgraf +5

Flock Logic was developed as an art and engineering project to explore how the feedback laws used to model flocking translate when applied by dancers. The artistic goal was to crea…

A New Notion of Effective Resistance for Directed Graphs-Part II: Computing Resistances

George Forrest Young, Luca Scardovi, Naomi Ehrich Leonard

In Part I of this work we defined a generalization of the concept of effective resistance to directed graphs, and we explored some of the properties of this new definition. Here, w…

Starling flock networks manage uncertainty in consensus at low cost

George Forrest Young, Luca Scardovi, Andrea Cavagna +2

Flocks of starlings exhibit a remarkable ability to maintain cohesion as a group in highly uncertain environments and with limited, noisy information. Recent work demonstrated that…

Rearranging trees for robust consensus

George Forrest Young, Luca Scardovi, Naomi Ehrich Leonard

In this paper, we use the H2 norm associated with a communication graph to characterize the robustness of consensus to noise. In particular, we restrict our attention to trees and…
