Pickin' up good vibrations: a systematic review of footfall detection and analysis in the realm of wildlife surveying

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Exploration of new wildlife surveying methodologies that leverage advances in sensor technology and machine learning has led to tentative research into the application of seismology techniques. This, most commonly, involves the deployment of a footfall trap – a seismic sensor and data logger customised for wildlife footfall.

Building Blocks as Experiences in Dynamic Capacitated Arc Routing Problems

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic capacitated arc routing problem (DCARP) aims to update the service paths of vehicles in the capacitated arc routing problem when uncertain factors deteriorate the current schedule of vehicles' services. A DCARP scenario comprises a series of DCARP instances that share similarities with each other. Therefore, optimisation experience

A directed artificial bee colony algorithm

open access: yesApplied Soft Computing, 2015
A new method based on artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is proposed in this study.The improvement is based on direction information produced for artificial bees.Performance of the proposed method has been examined on numeric functions.The experimental results show that proposed approach is more effective than some classical variants of ABC ...

A Multiuser Detector Based on Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm for DS-UWB Systems

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2013
Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm is an optimization algorithm based on the intelligent behavior of honey bee swarm. The ABC algorithm was developed to solve optimizing numerical problems and revealed premising results in processing time and solution

STATISTICALLY GUIDED ARTIFICIAL BEE COLONY ALGORITHM

open access: yesSelcuk University Journal of Engineering ,Science and Technology, 2017
Artificial Bee Colony algorithm is one of the naturally inspired meta heuristic method. As usual, in a meta heuristic method, intuitively appealing way to have better results is extending calculation time or increasing the fitness evaluation count. But the desired way is acquiring better results with less computation.

Genetic differentiation and adaptive evolution of buff‐tailed bumblebees in Asia

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates the genetic differentiation and local adaptation of the buff‐tailed bumblebee (Bombus terrestris) across its European and Asian populations. Using whole‐genome resequencing, we identified distinct genetic differences between populations, with Asian B. terrestris representing a unique genetic resource.

evsBat: An automated toolkit for tracking and quantifying rapid movement of nocturnal animals using event cameras

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Capturing the high‐speed behaviour of nocturnal animals remains technically challenging because conventional video systems require intense illumination that disrupts natural activity. Event‐based vision sensors (EVS) overcome this constraint, yet their ecological uptake has been slow owing to a lack of software capable of analysing the sparse,

Gonadulin and Insulin‐Like Growth Factor Involved in Rhipicephalus microplus Reproduction

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Insulin‐like growth factor (IGF2) in ovaries of Rhipicephalus microplus partially engorged females. Ovaries from females at different feeding stages were used to detect IGF2. ABSTRACT Gonadulin and insulin‐like growth factor (IGF) are neuropeptides synthesized by the central nervous system (CNS) of arthropods.

Bridging the implementation gap in MCABC inventory management: from a taxonomy to practical archetypes

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite increasing demands for resilient and sustainable supply chains, inventory management often relies on outdated single‐criterion analyses. While multi‐criteria ABC (MCABC) analyses provide a theoretically mature assessment of resilience‐sustainability‐benefit trade‐offs in inventory, their adoption remains limited due to fragmented ...
