Abstract: Typical collective behaviors in the Couzin model are exhibited by simulation, and some performances of the system such as convergence probability and relative size are analyzed. To provide an alternative to the constant-speed setting of the Couzin model, a velocity-adaptive strategy is presented. Simulation shows that in the new model both the convergence probability and the relative size are prominently enhanced.
