الوصف: We present Excitable Nonlinear Opinion Dynamics (E-NOD), which describe opinion-forming and decision-making behavior with superior "agility" in responding and adapting to fast and unpredictable changes in context, environment, or information about available options. E-NOD is derived by introducing a single extra term to the previously presented Nonlinear Opinion Dynamics (NOD), which have been shown to enable fast and flexible multi-agent behavior. This extra term is inspired by the fast-positive, slow-negative mixed-feedback structure of excitable systems. The agile behaviors resulting from the excitable nature of decision-making driven by E-NOD are analyzed in a general setting and illustrated through an application to robot navigation around human movers.
