Efficient Foraging Strategies in Multi-Agent Systems Through Curve Evolutions
In nature, communal hunting is often performed by predators charging through an aggregation of prey. Variations exist in the geometric shape of the charging front depending on the particulars of the feeding strategy. Inspired by biology, this technical note investigates these geometric variations, and we model the predator front as a curve moving through a prey density. Using variational arguments for evolving the curve shape, we optimize the shape of the front.
