How synchronized human networks escape local minima

E. Shniderman, Y. Avraham, et al.

This intriguing study examines how human networks, particularly a group of violin players, transcend local minima in complex network synchronization. Conducted by Elad Shniderman and collaborators, the research showcases the remarkable adaptability of human networks as they adjust tempo, amplitude, and coupling strength for achieving global synchronization, highlighting their unique robustness.

Abstract
This paper investigates how human networks, specifically a group of violin players, escape local minima in complex network synchronization. Unlike non-human networks, human networks can adjust tempo, amplitude, and coupling strength to overcome potential barriers and achieve global synchronization, demonstrating unique robustness and resilience.
