The book Cognitive Robotics, with our chapter on Swarm Robotics, is out today! @w9hby @SwarmDynamics @MarcoDorigo_ULB @IRIDIA_ULB @mitpress

Our newest article: Collective Decision Making by Embodied Neural Agents Available open-access from PNAS Nexus: doi.org/10.1093/pnasne… Congratulations and thanks to all our co-authors, especially @CouckeNicolas who initiated and led the study!!

Scientists have developed #SelfOrganizing robot #swarms that can flexibly reorganize into subgroups, each with its own leader, to replace failed robots, avoid obstacles, or locate missing objects. @mktheinrich @MarcoDorigo_ULB bit.ly/4fI9t9j

Can we make good decisions together when only communicating through our movements? This is what we investigated in our recent iScience paper. 🧵 cell.com/trends/cogniti…

Spotlight article in @TrendsCognSci about our recent paper on action-based collective decision making in humans! @CouckeNicolas M. Dorigo @axelcleeremans cell.com/trends/cogniti…

New research article Reducing Uncertainty in Collective Perception Using Self-Organizing Hierarchy Aryo Jamshidpey, Marco Dorigo @MarcoDorigo_ULB and Mary Katherine Heinrich @mktheinrich spj.science.org/doi/10.34133/i… #swarmrobotics #swarmintelligence #intelligentcomputing

Swarms without Borders! Despite #brexit, robots in @ShefRobotics 🇬🇧cooperate in real-time with Italian🇮🇹🍕robots @cnr_istc to complete collaborative tasks through new technology for multi-swarm interaction by @LuigiiFeola @joefresna @SalahTalamali @vitotrianni check 🧵👇

Scalable and resilient computation in robotics should be distributed, whether over many-robot graphs or within single chips. We present the new Workshop on Distributed Graph Algorithms for Robotics at #ICRA2023 in London sites.google.com/view/distribut…; please submit paper and demos!

I’m very happy to share our new perspective paper about transferring social cognition skills from humans to robots, co-written with @mktheinrich and with @axelcleeremans and @MarcoDorigo_ULB. frontiersin.org/articles/10.33… (1/12)
