| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to elucidate the mechanism behind the huge group of animals that show autonomous movement without the central system that animals show. The results of that theoretical model research were published in overseas research journals, and multiple research reports were made at domestic academic societies.
Also, although not included in the original plan, I proposed and made a presentation with the collaborators on "Definition on animal mind". We argued that the question "Does the animal have a mind?" Is essentially the same as the question "Is the group of animals conscious?"

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究が提案した群れの理論モデルは、本来相容れない「平均化相互作用」と「個体間相互作用」を両立し、群れ内部の高速情報伝搬を可能とした。そして、現実の動物の群れにおけるダイナミックな旋回運動を理論的にはじめて説明することに成功した。この結果は、当該分野において貢献は非常に大きいと考えるが、発表しばらくして海外の研究者からコンタクトをもらうなど大きな反応をもらえた。
また、本研究がきっかけとなり、「動物の心」に関する哲学的議論につなげることができ、分野をこえた共同研究ができたことは意義深い。
