The Effects of Personality, Networks, and Space on Collective Behavior
Offered By: Santa Fe Institute via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the intricate dynamics of collective behavior in biological systems through this 55-minute seminar by Noa Pinter-Wollman from the University of California, Los Angeles. Delve into how environment, interaction patterns, group composition, and genetic mechanisms shape collective outcomes in complex aggregates of multiple agents working towards higher-order goals without central control. Discover novel findings emerging from newly developed methods for investigating multidimensional behavioral spaces. Learn how field and lab studies are combined with computer simulations, theoretical work, image analysis, and social network analysis to uncover principles explaining the operation of complex animal societies. Gain insights into systems where emergent functions rely on component variation and interaction, potentially applicable to other complex systems beyond biology.
