Abstract
Plenty of empirical evidence on biological swarms reveal that interaction between individuals is selective. Each individual’s neighbor is selected based on one or more featured factors. Based on the self-propelled model, we develop a general probability neighbor selection framework to study the effect of four typical featured factors (i.e., distance, bearing, orientation change and bearing change). In this work, two common cases are involved to comprehensively analyze the impact of the four featured factors on the collective motion. One is the flocking, the other is the responsivity to stimulus. The impact of different selection strengths of the featured factors on both cases are investigated. The effect of noise on flocking and different stimulus intensities on responsivity to stimulus are analyzed. This study allows us to get the insight of selective interaction and suggests the potential solution to overcome the trade-off between flocking and responsivity quality.
