Bio-inspired density control of multi-agent swarms via leader-follower plasticity
Gian Carlo Maffettone, Alain Boldini, Mario di Bernardo +1
The design of control systems for the spatial self-organization of mobile agents is an open challenge across several engineering domains, including swarm robotics and synthetic bio…

Leader-Follower Density Control of Spatial Dynamics in Large-Scale Multi-Agent Systems
Gian Carlo Maffettone, Alain Boldini, Maurizio Porfiri +1
We address the problem of controlling the density of a large ensemble of follower agents by acting on a group of leader agents that interact with them. Using coupled partial integr…

Predicting the role of inequalities on human mobility patterns
Alain Boldini, Pietro De Lellis, Salvatore Imperatore +4
Whether in search of better trade opportunities or escaping wars, humans have always been on the move. For almost a century, mathematical models of human mobility have been instrum…
