Reactive Searching and Infotaxis in Odor Source Localization
Figure 3
Success rates, trajectory lengths, and deviation from the optimal path.
(A) Success rates of reactive search strategies, different colors indicate different strategies (legend in C), grouping indicates different stimulation doses (three doses plus no stimulation). (B) Success rates of cognitive searching with infotaxis (three doses plus no stimulation). (C) Trajectory lengths of reactive search strategies, different colors indicate different strategies, grouping indicates different stimulation doses. (D) Trajectory lengths of cognitive searching with infotaxis (three doses plus no stimulation). (E) Schematic drawing to explain the measure: the average of horizontal deviations (Xi) from trajectory to shortest path between start and source. (F) Deviation from the optimal path (
) for reactive searching, different colors indicate different reactive strategies for the three groups of pheromone doses. (G) Deviation from the optimal path (
) for cognitive searching (three doses plus no stimulation). Box plots are explained in the Methods, part 2, the numbers indicate mean
standard deviation.
