inControl ep18 - Naomi Ehrich Leonard, Part I: Geometric Control on Lie Groups, Underwater Vehicles and Collective Motion, Coordination in Animal Groups, Decision Making in Honeybees and Bifurcation Theory
Dec 13, 2023
Exploring geometric control on Lie groups for underwater vehicles, collective motion in animal groups, decision-making in honeybees, and bifurcation theory. Insights into the interconnected patterns in dancing and control theory, coordination in nature, and spatial patterns in coordinated groups. Discussing the challenges of stability in underwater vehicles and the importance of control laws for robustness.
