New dACE method models collective motion with interpretable many-body interactions

Researchers have developed a new method called directional atomic cluster expansion (dACE) to model collective motion, which accounts for many-body interactions unlike previous models that focused on pairwise forces. dACE can accurately identify interaction laws from limited data, outperforming the current competitor, SocialNet, especially in complex scenarios and in 3D. The learned laws are interpretable and have shown better agreement between different data subsets when applied to real-world datasets of fish behavior. AI

IMPACT Introduces a more accurate and interpretable method for modeling complex systems, potentially improving agent-based simulations and behavioral analysis.

    Interpretable many-body interaction laws for collective motion from few trajectories

    arXiv:2611.08314v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Models of collective motion usually reduce social interactions to pairwise forces, despite empirical evidence for many-body effects. We introduce the directional atomic cluster expansion (dACE), which adapts the atomic cluster expan…
