8
Our model Start point: seeking advantage least action Based on deterministic walks
9
Basic Rules One or several walkers moving on 2D lattices The resource of each position can slowly recover Walkers exhaust the resource of their occupied position, and jump to the nearest and richest position
10
Main Parameters M: number of walkers, denotes the group size N: size of lattice r = MV/N^2, denotes the degree of resource richness V: the maximum value of the resource in a lattice
11
Typical trajectories M = 100 N = 500 Move 5000 steps
12
Moving length distribution
13
Collective Movements Just like the marching bands of locust Two movies
14
The periodic evolution of ordering parameter
15
Evolution of averaged ordering parameter The absence of food leads to the collective movements
16
Notice There is not any directly interactions between individuals Different with most of the models for collective movements
17
Approximately analysis
18
Conclusions Our model starts from two universal properties of biological behavior Our model can generate power-law flight length distribution with exponent -1.6 to -3.0, in agreement with empirical results Around the critical point, our model generates ordered collective movements of walkers with a quasi-periodic synchronization of walkers' directions. Our findings provide a bridge to connect the individual scaling mobility patterns and the ordered collective movements
