An autonomous robot inspired by insect neurophysiology pursues moving features in natural environments.

Journal of neural engineering
OBJECTIVE: Many computer vision and robotic applications require the implementation of robust and efficient target-tracking algorithms on a moving platform. However, deployment of a real-time system is challenging, even with the computational power o...

The plant perceptron connects environment to development.

Nature
Plants cope with the environment in a variety of ways, and ecological analyses attempt to capture this through life-history strategies or trait-based categorization. These approaches are limited because they treat the trade-off mechanisms that underl...

A neural network prediction of environmental determinants of Anopheles sinensis knockdown resistance mutation to pyrethroids in China.

Journal of vector ecology : journal of the Society for Vector Ecology
Selection pressure caused by long-term intensive use of insecticides is the key driving force in resistance development. Additional parameters such as environmental conditions may affect both the mosquito response to insecticides and the selection of...

[Relationship between reference values of fibrinogen and geographical factors based on neural network analysis].

Nan fang yi ke da xue xue bao = Journal of Southern Medical University
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the relationship between the reference values of fibrinogen (FIB) in healthy Chinese adults and geographical factors to provide scientific evidences for establishing the uniform standard.

Tail use improves performance on soft substrates in models of early vertebrate land locomotors.

Science (New York, N.Y.)
In the evolutionary transition from an aquatic to a terrestrial environment, early tetrapods faced the challenges of terrestrial locomotion on flowable substrates, such as sand and mud of variable stiffness and incline. The morphology and range of mo...

Participatory design and validation of mobility enhancement robotic wheelchair.

Journal of rehabilitation research and development
The design of the mobility enhancement robotic wheelchair (MEBot) was based on input from electric powered wheelchair (EPW) users regarding the conditions they encounter when driving in both indoor and outdoor environments that may affect their safet...

Ontogenic retinal changes in three ecologically distinct elopomorph fishes (Elopomorpha:Teleostei) correlate with light environment and behavior.

Visual neuroscience
Unlike the mammalian retina, the teleost fish retina undergoes persistent neurogenesis from intrinsic stem cells. In marine teleosts, most cone photoreceptor genesis occurs early in the embryonic and larval stages, and rods are added primarily during...

Predicting bacterial community assemblages using an artificial neural network approach.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.)
Microbial communities are found in nearly all environments and play a critical role in defining ecosystem service. Understanding the relationship between these microbial communities and their environment is essential for prediction of community struc...
