Monitoring trends in animal populations is essential for the development of appropriate wildlife management strategies. However, long‐term studies are difficult to maintain mainly due to the lack of continuous funding. In this scenario, the collaboration

SAMPLING VARIANCES OF HETEROZYGOSITY AND GENETIC DISTANCE [PDF]
ABSTRACT Mathematical formulae for the sampling variances of average heterozygosity and Nei's genetic distance are developed. These sampling variances are decomposed into their two components, i.e. the inter-locus and intra-locus variances. The relationship between the number of loci and the number of individuals per locus to be examined

Bayesian methods for hierarchical distance sampling models [PDF]
Cornelia S. Oedekoven was supported by a studentship jointly funded by the University of St Andrews and EPSRC (EPSRC grant EP/C522702/1), through the National Centre for Statistical Ecology.The few distance sampling studies that use Bayesian methods ...

Incorporating measurement error and density gradients in distance sampling surveys [PDF]
Distance sampling is one of the most commonly used methods for estimating density and abundance. Conventional methods are based on the distances of detected animals from the center of point transects or the center line of line transects.

Reliable estimates of wild boar populations by nocturnal distance sampling
The wild boar is one of the most invasive species among large mammals in both its native and introduced ranges. This species represents a main threat for crops and biodiversity and a pest for the pig industry due to the rapid expansion of the African ...

Keep Your Distance: Determining Sampling and Distance Thresholds in Machine Learning Monitoring
Machine Learning~(ML) has provided promising results in recent years across different applications and domains. However, in many cases, qualities such as reliability or even safety need to be ensured. To this end, one important aspect is to determine whether or not ML components are deployed in situations that are appropriate for their application ...
