Abstract
Abstract Fluid neural networks, defined as neural nets of mobile elements with random activation, are studied by means of several approaches. They are proposed as a theoretical framework for a wide class of systems as insect societies, collectives of robots or the immune system. The critical properties of this model are also analysed, showing the existence of a critical boundary in parameter space where maximum information transfer occurs. In this sense, this boundary is in fact an example of the “edge of chaos” in systems like those described in our approach. Recent experiments with ant colonies seem to confirm our result.
