Fidelity to territory and mate and the causes and consequences of breeding dispersal in American goshawk (Astur atricapillus).

PloS one
Using mark-resight data, we investigated fidelity to territory and mate as well as breeding dispersal rates and the causes and consequences of breeding dispersal in a 20-year study of American goshawks (Astur atricapillus) in Arizona, USA. Generalize...

The implementation of robotic dogs in automatic detection and surveillance of red imported fire ant nests.

Pest management science
BACKGROUND: The Red Imported Fire Ant (RIFA), scientifically known as Solenopsis invicta, is a destructive invasive species causing considerable harm to ecosystems and generating substantial economic costs globally. Traditional methods for RIFA nests...

Applications of machine learning in behavioral ecology: Quantifying avian incubation behavior and nest conditions in relation to environmental temperature.

PloS one
In the age of machine learning, building programs that take advantage of the speed and specificity of algorithm development can greatly aid efforts to quantify and interpret changes in animal behavior in response to abiotic environmental factors, lik...

Convolutional neural network-based classification system design with compressed wireless sensor network images.

PloS one
With the introduction of various advanced deep learning algorithms, initiatives for image classification systems have transitioned over from traditional machine learning algorithms (e.g., SVM) to Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) using deep learni...

Extracting T-S Fuzzy Models Using the Cuckoo Search Algorithm.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
A new method called cuckoo search (CS) is used to extract and learn the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model. In the proposed method, the particle or cuckoo of CS is formed by the structure of rules in terms of number and selected rules, the antecedent, a...

Localizing Tortoise Nests by Neural Networks.

PloS one
The goal of this research is to recognize the nest digging activity of tortoises using a device mounted atop the tortoise carapace. The device classifies tortoise movements in order to discriminate between nest digging, and non-digging activity (spec...
