Intelligent collective: some issues with collective cardinality

Abstract

In general, a common approach to enhance the diversity, an important criterion of intelligent collectives, is to enlarge the collective cardinality. The objective of this study was to analyse some issues with collective cardinality in the effectiveness of collective performance. For this aim, first, we investigate the impact of collective cardinality on collective performance. Subsequently, a comparison among collective performance measures is presented. The simulation results have qualified the positive impact of collective cardinality on the effectiveness of collective performance. Moreover, some issues on processing large collectives; some further challenges of the impact of diversity on collective prediction are discussed.
