Biomimetic AI Trading System: Fish-Inspired Decision Making

Abstract

We present a novel approach to algorithmic trading through the synthesis of biomimetic artificial intelligence and ichthyological behavioral patterns. By leveraging multi-modal transformer architectures and reinforcement learning paradigms, we develop a system that emulates the collective intelligence and adaptive behaviors observed in fish species, particularly in their response to environmental stimuli and group dynamics. This framework is applied to the emerging field of decentralized finance, specifically focusing on the Solana ecosystem's memecoin markets.
