+Description: In the wild, animal groups such as fish schools and sheep herds exhibit
+  collective motion behavior during foraging, predator evasion and migration. The
+  mechanism for how individual sensory input is propagated through the modular groups
+  to result in emergent behavior is elusive. We use a 2D self-propelled particle model
+  that incorporates animal-like topological social alignment interaction as well as
+  informed individuals with access to environmental cues. We investigate the effect
+  of the self-organized cluster structure on how informed individuals transmit information.
+  We aim to determine the order of phase transition in global polarization and local
+  structure, as informedness permeates the group.
