From honeybees to robots and back: division of labour based on partitioning social inhibition.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Oct 26, 2015
In this paper, a distributed adaptive partitioning algorithm inspired by division of labor in honeybees is investigated for its applicability in a swarm of underwater robots in one hand and is qualitatively compared with the behavior of honeybee colo...
How cockroaches exploit tactile boundaries to find new shelters.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Oct 23, 2015
Animals such as cockroaches depend on exploration of unknown environments, and their strategies may inspire robotic approaches. We have previously shown that cockroach behavior, with respect to shelters and the walls of an otherwise empty arena, can ...
Behavior modulation of rats to a robotic rat in multi-rat interaction.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Sep 28, 2015
In this paper, we study the behavioral response of rats to a robotic rat during multi-rat interaction. Experiments are conducted in an open-field where a robotic rat called WR-5 is put together with three laboratory rats. WR-5 is following one rat (t...
Automated measurement of mouse social behaviors using depth sensing, video tracking, and machine learning.
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Sep 9, 2015
A lack of automated, quantitative, and accurate assessment of social behaviors in mammalian animal models has limited progress toward understanding mechanisms underlying social interactions and their disorders such as autism. Here we present a new in...
Development of automatic surveillance of animal behaviour and welfare using image analysis and machine learned segmentation technique.
Animal : an international journal of animal bioscience
Jul 20, 2015
In this paper the feasibility to extract the proportion of pigs located in different areas of a pig pen by advanced image analysis technique is explored and discussed for possible applications. For example, pigs generally locate themselves in the wet...
The Behavioral Space of Zebrafish Locomotion and Its Neural Network Analog.
PloS one
Jul 1, 2015
How simple is the underlying control mechanism for the complex locomotion of vertebrates? We explore this question for the swimming behavior of zebrafish larvae. A parameter-independent method, similar to that used in studies of worms and flies, is a...
Video-tracking of zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a biological early warning system using two distinct artificial neural networks: Probabilistic neural network (PNN) and self-organizing map (SOM).
Aquatic toxicology (Amsterdam, Netherlands)
Jun 20, 2015
Biological early warning systems (BEWS) are becoming very important tools in ecotoxicological studies because they can detect changes in the behavior of organisms exposed to toxic substances. In this work, a video tracking system was fully developed ...
Dexterous robotic manipulation of alert adult Drosophila for high-content experimentation.
Nature methods
May 25, 2015
We present a robot that enables high-content studies of alert adult Drosophila by combining operations including gentle picking; translations and rotations; characterizations of fly phenotypes and behaviors; microdissection; or release. To illustrate...
Visual choice behavior by bumblebees (Bombus impatiens) confirms unsupervised neural network's predictions.
Journal of comparative psychology (Washington, D.C. : 1983)
May 18, 2015
The behavioral experiment herein tests the computational load hypothesis generated by an unsupervised neural network to examine bumblebee (Bombus impatiens) behavior at 2 visual properties: spatial frequency and symmetry. Untrained "flower-naïve" bum...
Acute caffeine administration affects zebrafish response to a robotic stimulus.
Behavioural brain research
Apr 20, 2015
Zebrafish has been recently proposed as a valid animal model to investigate the fundamental mechanisms regulating emotional behavior and evaluate the modulatory effects exerted by psychoactive compounds. In this study, we propose a novel methodologic...
