## Summary

The authors propose Neuromorphic Decision Dynamics (NDD), a decentralized, event-driven controller for safe navigation in congested environments, with guarantees on safety, liveness, robustness, and scalability. NDD requires no communication, preassigned priorities, or models of neighbors' objectives; by coupling internal decision and attention states to physical states and the relative motion observed locally, it enables agents to self-organize into local conflict groups and form a passage order.
