Suppose you are a hunter that doesn’t have information about the distance from the prey. For instance a blind dog with very precise smelling which can be mapped to a distance from the potential prey. How can this dog locate and eventually reach its prey?
The algorithms are not documented yet, but a simulation is provided. If you are interested contact me for more information.
Demo
simulation parameters:
- \( V_{prey} \approx V_{predator} \)
- Prey changes direction with small probability
- Predator adopts the strategy we have assigned it (not explained here).
