Swarm Behavior

Swarm behavior refers to the coordinated actions of a large group of individuals, like insects, birds, or robots, which work together without central control. Each member follows simple rules, responding to nearby neighbors, leading to complex, organized patterns such as flocking birds, ant trails, or fish schools. This decentralized coordination allows the group to adapt quickly, find resources efficiently, and protect against predators. In technology, swarm algorithms mimic this natural behavior to solve complex problems such as optimization, navigation, and robotics, harnessing collective intelligence emerging from simple local interactions.
