我们提出了一种巢友识别的分布式模型,类似于脊椎动物免疫系统使用的模型,其中群体反应是由许多蚂蚁的不同反应产生的。该模型描述了个体行为如何引起群体对非同巢个体的反应。没有一只蚂蚁知道蚁群的气味。相反,蚁群身份是由蚁群中所有蚂蚁共同定义的。每只蚂蚁都会根据自己独特的决策边界对其他蚂蚁的气味做出反应,这是其与其他蚂蚁相遇的经验的结果。因此,每只蚂蚁都会将一组特定的化学特征识别为非巢蚁的化学特征。正如实验结果所示,该模型预测行为测定的结果可能是可变的,它取决于测试的蚂蚁的数量,对非巢蚁的反应会随着时间的推移而变化,并且会根据个体蚂蚁的经历而变化。分布式系统允许蚁群识别非巢蚁,而不需要所有个体都具有相同的完整信息,并有助于促进角质层碳氢化合物分布变化的跟踪,因为只有一部分蚂蚁必须做出反应才能提供足够的反应。
We propose a distributed model of nestmate recognition, analogous to the one used by the vertebrate immune system, in which colony response results from the diverse reactions of many ants. The model describes how individual behaviour produces colony response to non-nestmates. No single ant knows the odour identity of the colony. Instead, colony identity is defined collectively by all the ants in the colony. Each ant responds to the odour of other ants by reference to its own unique decision boundary, which is a result of its experience of encounters with other ants. Each ant thus recognizes a particular set of chemical profiles as being those of non-nestmates. This model predicts, as experimental results have shown, that the outcome of behavioural assays is likely to be variable, that it depends on the number of ants tested, that response to non-nestmates changes over time and that it changes in response to the experience of individual ants. A distributed system allows a colony to identify non-nestmates without requiring that all individuals have the same complete information and helps to facilitate the tracking of changes in cuticular hydrocarbon profiles, because only a subset of ants must respond to provide an adequate response.
