Statistical mechanics for natural flocks of birds (2011, background): “It can be easily shown (see SI Appendix) that the maximum entropy distribution consistent with this scalar correlation is in fact the distribution [4].”
Where Next? Group Coordination and Collective Decision Making by Primates (2011, background): “In such models, individuals coordinate their movements by adopting simple metric rules based on attraction, repulsion, and alignment with neighbors (Couzin and Krause 2003).”
All together now: behavioural synchrony in baboons. (2009, background): “In the latter case, self-organization theory suggests that behavioural synchrony can arise from relatively simple interaction patterns among group members (Sumpter 2006), since multiple individuals following simple local movement rules can produce extremely synchronous behaviour ( Couzin & Krause 20”
Social dynamics in the preschool (2005, background): “…cycles of predator–prey populations (Murray, 1989), synchronization of basic brain-stem functions yielding higher-order cortical processes (Freeman, 2000; Lewis, 2005), coordination of limbs during walking (Thelen & Ulrich, 1991), and Xocking behavior of migrating birds (Couzin & Krause, 2003).”
Parallel influence of climate on the behaviour of Pacific killer whales and Atlantic bottlenose dolphins (2004, methodology): “Recently developed models also show that the aggregation behaviour of animals may be governed by simple rules (Krause & Ruxton 2002; Couzin & Krause 2003) and therefore modelled using techniques for describing the movement of physical particles (Okubo 1986).”
Spacing and group coordination in a nocturnal primate, the golden brown mouse lemur (Microcebus ravelobensis): the role of olfactory and acoustic signals (2005, background): “How members of dispersed social groups regulate their distribution in time and space and how they coordinate group movement and maintain group cohesiveness are fundamental questions in socio-ecology (e.g. Boinski and Garber 2000; Couzin and Krause 2003; de Waal and Tyack 2003).”
Selective mimetism at departure in collective movements of Macaca tonkeana: an experimental and theoretical approach (2009, background): “…simple rules, authors have explained how large groups such as fishes in shoals or birds in flocks coordinate their movements (Camazine et al. 2001; Couzin & Krause 2003; Biro et al. 2006), fireflies synchronize their flashings (Strotgatz & Stewart 1993; Ramirez-Avila et al. 2003) and locusts…”
Density distribution and size sorting in fish schools: an individual-based model (2005, background): “On the other hand, Couzin and Krause (2003) have shown in a model that individual Address correspondence to C. K. Hemelrijk.”
Swarming, schooling, milling: phase diagram of a data-driven fish school model (2013, background): “Transitions between different types of collective behaviour play a major role in the adaptiveness of animal groups [1, 3] (see [2]8).”
Comparative transitive and temporal orderliness in dominance networks (2013, neutral): “Dominance dynamics may, therefore, join the growing evidence for varying degrees of self-organization in nature (Camazine 2001; Couzin and Krause 2003).”
The principles of collective animal behaviour (2006, background): “Far from requiring a distinct set of behaviours, these three very different collective patterns self-organize in response to a small adjustments to one factor: the radius over which individuals align with each other (Couzin & Krause 2003).”
Evidence for social role in a dolphin social network (2006, background): “results in conflicts (Conradt and Roper 2000, 2003) and no consensus has been reached on which mechanisms are driving this process (Conradt and Roper 2003, 2005; Couzin and Krause 2003; Couzin et al. 2005).”
Propagating waves in starling, Sturnus vulgaris, flocks under predation (2011, background): “The formation of waves is a vivid example of self-organized collective behaviour occurring in insect swarms, bird flocks, fish schools and mammalian herds (Krause & Ruxton 2002; Couzin & Krause 2003; Gerlotto et al. 2006; Kastberger et al. 2008).”
