Waggle Dance Encodes Complex Info
- Bees communicate complex information using the waggle dance, which conveys direction, distance, and quality of sites.
- This simple movement encodes real-world spatial and qualitative data crucial for hive tasks.
Global Queen Map via Pheromone Chains
- Bees construct a global map of the queen's location using pheromone signals amplified through a chain of workers.
- This dynamic chemical network allows distant bees to find the queen despite rapid pheromone decay.
Agent-Based Modeling Best Practices
- Use agent-based models to simulate physical interactions with simple local rules for better intuition.
- Mimic biological limitations by programming agents with local sensing and interaction only.
