Editors vs Infotaxis - What's the difference?
editors | infotaxis |
Any searching strategy in which there is sparse information, especially a strategy used by biological organisms to zigzag towards the source of an odour based on sporadic clues.

*:In the framework of the so-called infotaxis' algorithm any search process can be thought of as acquisition of information on source location. Thus information plays a role similar to concentration in chemotaxis. Then the ' infotaxis strategy locally maximizes the expected rate of information gain.

*:In a recent paper, Vergassola et al. demonstrated that infotaxis', which is motion based on expected information gain, can be a more effective search strategy when the source signal is weak than conventional methods such as moving along the gradient of a chemical concentration [2]. The ' infotaxis algorithm combines the two competing goals of exploration of possible search moves and exploitation of received signals to guide the searcher in the direction with the highest probability of finding the source [3].

As nouns the difference between editors and infotaxis
is that editors is plural of editor while infotaxis is any searching strategy in which there is sparse information, especially a strategy used by biological organisms to zigzag towards the source of an odour based on sporadic clues.infotaxis

- Some literatures investigated the odor source localization by robots mimicking biologic behaviors, such as chemotaxis [
1] and anemotaxis [ 2], or custom algorithms like fluxotaxis [ 3] and infotaxis [ 4]. The multi-robot system has more advantages than single robot in odor source localization. First, the expected search time can be decreased. Second, the multi-robot system does not easily fall into local maxima.
