Monkeys fight more in polluted air
Scientific Reports, 2021 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

Interaction ruling animal collective behavior depends on topological rather than metric distance: Evidence from a field study [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2007 Numerical models indicate that collective animal behavior may emerge from simple local rules of interaction among the individuals. However, very little is known about the nature of such interaction, so that models and theories mostly rely on aprioristic ...

APT-36K: A Large-scale Benchmark for Animal Pose Estimation and Tracking [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Animal pose estimation and tracking (APT) is a fundamental task for detecting and tracking animal keypoints from a sequence of video frames. Previous animal-related datasets focus either on animal tracking or single-frame animal pose estimation, and never on both aspects.

MammalNet: A Large-scale Video Benchmark for Mammal Recognition and Behavior Understanding [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Monitoring animal behavior can facilitate conservation efforts by providing key insights into wildlife health, population status, and ecosystem function. Automatic recognition of animals and their behaviors is critical for capitalizing on the large unlabeled datasets generated by modern video devices and for accelerating monitoring efforts at scale ...
