Abstract
⺠A minimal model of motile particles with adjustable intrinsic steering is presented. ⺠Collective motion emerges due to self-adaptation of each particle's intrinsic state. ⺠Adaptation is achieved by a map which behavior ranges from periodic to chaotic. ⺠Higher cohesion occurs in a balanced combination of ordered and chaotic motion. ⺠Exhibits an abrupt change in degree of coherence as a function of particle density.
