Collective Trust Behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper investigates trust behavior in situations where decision-makers are large groups and the decision mechanism is collective. Theories from behavioral economics and psychology suggest that trust in such situations may differ from interindividual ...

Evolving collective behavior in an artificial ecology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Collective behavior refers to coordinated group motion, common to many animals. The dynamics of a group can be seen as a distributed model, each “animal” applying the same rule set.

The performance of field sampling for parasite detection in a wild passerine

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Parasites can impact the behavior of animals and alter the interplay with ecological factors in their environment. Studying the effects that parasites have on animals thus requires accurate estimates of infections in individuals.

Collective Animal Behavior from Bayesian Estimation and Probability Matching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
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 ...

Collective behavior of swarmalators on a ring [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2022
We study the collective behavior of swarmalators, generalizations of phase oscillators that both sync and swarm, confined to move on a one-dimensional (1D) ring. This simple model captures the essence of movement in two or three dimensions, but has the benefit of being solvable: most of the collective states and their bifurcations can be specified ...

Social modulation of individual preferences in cockroaches

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: In social species, decision-making is both influenced by, and in turn influences, the social context. This reciprocal feedback introduces coupling across scales, from the neural basis of sensing, to individual and collective decision-making ...

TRex, a fast multi-animal tracking system with markerless identification, and 2D estimation of posture and visual fields

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Automated visual tracking of animals is rapidly becoming an indispensable tool for the study of behavior. It offers a quantitative methodology by which organisms’ sensing and decision-making can be studied in a wide range of ecological contexts.

Behavioral variation across the days and lives of honey bees

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: In honey bee colonies, workers generally change tasks with age (from brood care, to nest work, to foraging). While these trends are well established, our understanding of how individuals distribute tasks during a day, and how individuals differ ...

DeepPoseKit, a software toolkit for fast and robust animal pose estimation using deep learning

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Quantitative behavioral measurements are important for answering questions across scientific disciplines—from neuroscience to ecology. State-of-the-art deep-learning methods offer major advances in data quality and detail by allowing researchers to ...

Life in 2.5D: Animal Movement in the Trees

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
The complex, interconnected, and non-contiguous nature of canopy environments present unique cognitive, locomotor, and sensory challenges to their animal inhabitants.
