Flock Cohesion

Flock Cohesion is a flock-level behavioral metric in collective animal behavior research that quantifies the spatial compactness of individuals within a group by measuring the average distance between each agent and its neighbors, thereby distinguishing itself from other flock dynamics parameters through its focus on group tightness as an indicator of social affiliation and coordination.
