Morphogenesis-Based Multidimensional Shape Formation of Swarms

Abstract

The morphogenesis process, which allows the full growth of living beings from individual cells, has been very attractive to create algorithms that control agent swarms. One of its key issues is how to specify complex shape formations. Current researches has not reached real swarm 3-D implementations and even less explored the higher dimensional theoretical proposals, even so the paradigm being able to inspire the built of shapes with unlimited canonical dimensions and create hyper-surfaces. In this paper we propose an approach to a morphogenesis inspired algorithm for hyper-dimensional swarms and the simulation results that will show the advantages of this approach related to the flexibility, robustness and applicability and the best algorithm parameters.
