Nonlocomotory Robotic Strategies for Dynamic Rotation Control in Terrestrial Robots: A Review

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Terrestrial robots increasingly require rapid body rotation to maintain stability and agility in complex environments. This review shows nonlocomotory rotational control strategies that operate without ground contact, including reaction wheels, tails, bars, limbs, and thrusters.

Unpacking response Inhibition in animals – part 2: an empirical test

Animal Cognition
Response inhibition - the ability to suppress or stop actions - is crucial for adaptive behaviour across species. In Part 1 of this study, we presented a conceptual framework for understanding response inhibition as multifaceted.

Small Ranging Area and Less Mobile Pattern of a Long-Distance Migratory Raptor During the Post-Fledging Dependence Period, Determined by Fledging Date and Forest Preferences

Birds
The central point of evolutionary ecology is understanding the drivers of variation in life-history strategies among organisms. The post-fledging dependence period is a critical life-history stage in the life cycle of altricial birds, influencing their ...

Blood parasite infections in a wild population of ravens (Corvus corax) in Bulgaria

Malaria Journal, 2018
Background Blood parasites have been studied intensely in many families of avian hosts, but corvids, a particularly cosmopolitan family, remain underexplored.

Multilevel Embedding and Dropout for Improved 3D Object Detection in Autonomous Driving Systems

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A plug‐in framework for RoI‐based 3D object detectors exploits previously untapped multi‐level information within RoI features. Its novel multi‐level embedding and dropout strategy enables the detection head to generate predictions at different feature levels.

To peck or not to peck: the influence of early-life social environment on response inhibition and impulsive aggression in Japanese quails

Royal Society Open Science
Deficits in response inhibition (RI; i.e. the ability to suppress inappropriate responses) may contribute to increased impulsive aggression (IA; i.e. unplanned behaviours that harm others).

The Bird Tree

Journal of Functional Programming, 2009
Sadly, Richard Bird is stepping down as the editor of the ‘Functional Pearls’ column. As a farewell present, I would like to dedicate a tree to him. A woody plant is appropriate for at least two reasons: Richard has been preoccupied with trees in many of his pearls, and where else would you find a bird's nest? Actually, there is a lot of room for nests,

ChicGrasp: Imitation‐Learning‐Based Customized Dual‐Jaw Gripper Control for Manipulation of Delicate, Irregular Bio‐Products

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Automated poultry processing lines still rely on humans to lift slippery, easily bruised carcasses onto a shackle conveyor. Deformability, anatomical variance, and hygiene rules make conventional suction and scripted motions unreliable. We present ChicGrasp, an end‐to‐end hardware‐software co‐designed imitation learning framework, to offer a ...

Distribution, Abundance, Breeding Performance and Habitat Requirements of the Lesser Spotted Eagle in South-east Bulgaria

Пернатые хищники и их охрана, 2018
The Lesser Spotted Eagle is a long-lived, territorial raptor, distributed mainly in Eastern and Central Europe. Southeast Bulgaria is a part of the southern limit of the species distribution range.
