“…The auditory and visual sensing modalities are incorporated similar to the work in [27]. In the visual sensing mode, each particle is assumed to have a sensing region similar to a field of vision, represented as a sector enclosed by two radii of length r and a central angle 2ϕ, where ϕ denotes the sensing angle.…”

“…There is limited consideration in the literature for models implementing audition-based interaction, for instance, a model inspired by acoustic sensing in midges [25] and echolocation in bats [26]. A study in [27] employs auditory sensing within a modified Vicsek model to examine the differences in behavior at the group-level by comparing simulation results with a model that uses purely visual sensing. The auditory sensory system is modeled as a sector of a circle [27] using a well-characterized directivity pattern observed in the formation of ultrasonic beams and inspired by biological systems [28].…”

The present study investigates how combined information from audition and vision impacts group-level behavior. We consider a modification to the original Vicsek model that allows individuals to use auditory and visual sensing modalities to gather information from neighbors in order to update their heading directions. Moreover, in this model, the information from visual and auditory cues can be weighed differently. In a simulation study, we examine the sensitivity of the emergent group-level behavior to the weights that are assigned to each sense modality in this weighted composite model. Our findings suggest combining sensory cues may play an important role in the collective behavior and results from the composite model indicate that the group-level features from pure audition predominate.
