Complexity Synchronization in Emergent Intelligence

In this work, we use a simple multi-agent-based model (MABM), implementing selfish algorithm (SA) agents, to create an adaptive environment and show, using modified diffusion entropy analysis (MDEA), that the mutual-adaptive interaction between the parts of such a network manifests complexity synchronization (CS). CS has been experimentally shown to exist among organ-networks (ONs) of the brain (neurophysiology), lungs (respiration), and heart (cardiovascular reactivity) and to be explained theoretically as a synchronization of the multifractal scaling parameters characterizing each time series. Herein, we find the same kind of CS in the emergent intelligence (i.e., without macroscopic control and based on self-interest) between two groups of agents playing an anti-coordination game, thereby suggesting the potential for the same CS in real-world social phenomena and in human-machine interactions.
