Abstract
This paper demonstrates agents forming clusters that are spatially akin to human conversational groups. Demo works based on two different models: Model 1 operates at a global level to organize agents into predominantly circular clusters; whereas Model 2 operates at a local level to organize agents into variably shaped clusters.
