Abstract: Flexible decision-making is a vital aspect of swarm behavior. Nature offers a level of uncertainty that could force a swarm to reconsider a site previously abandoned. While efforts are being made to allow for flexible decision-making in autonomous swarms, there is little literature in the area of re-evaluation functions as most models utilize site abandonment functions. The research in this paper produces a re-evaluation algorithm for discrete n-site selection by autonomous swarms, taking inspiration from prior work with quorum sensing models and ant colony optimization algorithms. The algorithm’s success in re-evaluation trades off with decision time, but increases the accuracy of decisions made.
