• An agent-based model of collective nest choice by the ant Temnothorax albipennis (2005, background): “Similar experimental data is also available for honeybee house-hunting (Camazine et al. 1999; Seeley & Buhrman 1999; Seeley & Buhrman 2001; Seeley 2003; Seeley & Visscher 2003, 2004 ) as well as for certain aspects of the foraging of honeybees (Seeley 1995) and several ant species (Detrain & Deneub”

Group Coordination and Collective Decision Making by Primates (2011, background): “Such heuristics, when adopted in the context of a collective movement, can enable groups of individuals to achieve both fast and accurate decisions (Franks et al. 2003; Seeley and Visscher 2004; Ward et al. 2008).”
