A Trial of a Solar-Powered, Cooperative Sensor/Actuator, Opto-Acoustical, Virtual Road-Fence to Mitigate Roadkill in Tasmania, Australia

open access: yesAnimals, 2019
When wildlife and motor vehicles collide, the result for the animals is often death (roadkill). A commercial roadkill mitigation device that forms a so-called virtual fence (VF), is said to reduce roadkill by up to 90%.

Enhanced Avoidance Habits in Relation to History of Early-Life Stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2019
The effect of stress on the balance between goal-directed behavior and stimulus–response habits has been demonstrated in a number of studies, but the extent to which stressful events that occur during development affect the balance between these systems ...

Divergent encoding of active avoidance behavior in corticostriatal and corticolimbic projections

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Active avoidance behavior, in which an animal performs an action to avoid a stressor, is crucial for survival and may provide insight into avoidance behaviors seen in anxiety disorders. Active avoidance requires the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC),

LEARNING TO AVOID RISKY ACTIONS [PDF]

open access: yesCybernetics and Systems, 2011
When a reinforcement learning agent executes actions that can cause frequent damage to itself, it can learn, by using Q -learning, that these actions must not be executed again. However, there are other actions that do not cause damage frequently but only once in a while, for example, risky actions such as parachuting.
