Dynamical modeling of collective behavior from pigeon flight data: flock cohesion and dispersion.

Several models of flocking have been promoted based on simulations with qualitatively naturalistic behavior. In this paper we provide the first direct application of computational modeling methods to infer flocking behavior from experimental field data. We show that this approach is able to infer ge...
