Outline of Final Research Achievements

We showed that the interactions among animal individuals could result not from a simple sensor-motor coupling but from one-to-many type mapping and its degeneration influenced by multiple modalities of senses. It is concluded that the interactions revealed intrinsic anticipation and negotiations which could carry diversity of individual behaviors contributing to the robust and united wholeness. Our findings can be generalized not only in a broad taxa of animals including swarms of crustaceans, social animals and fish schools but in the united body of human being which could give rise to consciousness.
