Collective Animal Behavior from Bayesian Estimation and Probability Matching [PDF]
Animals living in groups make movement decisions that depend, among other factors, on social interactions with other group members. Our present understanding of social rules in animal collectives is based on empirical fits to observations and we lack ...

Probabilistic models of individual and collective animal behavior [PDF]
Recent developments in automated tracking allow uninterrupted, high-resolution recording of animal trajectories, sometimes coupled with the identification of stereotyped changes of body pose or other behaviors of interest.

Performance of Azure-winged magpies in Aesop’s fable paradigm
In this study, the improved Aesop’s fable paradigm—a series of experiments originally used to test whether some animals understand the causality associated with water replacement—was used to explore the cognitive ability of Azure-winged magpies ...

Monkeys fight more in polluted air
Air pollution is a global environmental problem, and its effects on human behavior, psychology, and health have been well studied. However, very few studies were done on if and how air pollution affects animal behavior, for example, social conflict. Many

Performance Evaluation of Neural Networks for Animal Behaviors Classification: Horse Gaits Case Study [PDF]
The study and monitoring of wildlife has always been a subject of great interest. Studying the behavior of wildlife animals is a very complex task due to the difficulties to track them and classify their behaviors through the collected sensory ...

How do we approach intrinsic motivation computationally? : a commentary on: What is intrinsic motivation? A typology of computational approaches. by Pierre-Yves Oudeyer and Frederic Kaplan [PDF]
What is the energy function guiding behavior and learningµ Representationbased approaches like maximum entropy, generative models, sparse coding, or slowness principles can account for unsupervised learning of biologically observed structure in sensory ...

Animal behavior: Innovation in the city
Behavioral innovations may help animals cope with new environments, but how such behaviors start is hard to capture. A new study reports the innovation and transmission of a new foraging culture in an urban parrot.
