Emergent behavior research based on multi-agent coevolution mechanism

The process of coevolution exists among multiple species in the ecological system, which is one of the primary features for emergent phenomena and behaviors. In this paper, we analyze the emergent behaviors in the process of multi-agent competitive coevolution, propose the research frame for emergent behaviors based on multi-agent coevolution mechanism, establish the multi-agent coevolution dynamics model and the elect strategy model, and design individual rule set of the agent. At last, we implement the system by multi-agent modeling language, NetLogo. With simulation experiments of the birds-bugs prey problem, we analyze emergent behaviors of aggregation in the process of multi-agent coevolution, and summarize the principle of emergent behaviors and parameters of multi-agent coevolution rules.
