α R

Linear response

α 0 +λ A ( x ) A max

α 0 +λ A ( x ) A max

Adaptive response

α 0 +λ ( v + d ) A ′ ( x ) ( v + d ) A max ′

α 0 -λ ( v - d ) A ′ ( x ) ( v + d ) A max ′

Hybrid response

α 0 + λ L i n A ( x ) A max + λ A d a p t ( v + d ) A ′ ( x ) ( v + d ) A max ′

α 0 + λ L i n A ( x ) A max - λ A d a p t ( v - d ) A ′ ( x ) ( v + d ) A max ′

  1. A(x) and A'(x) are the local concentration of attractant and its spatial derivative. Response magnitudes are normalised by Amax and A'max, the maximum values of these parameters.
