The Advantage of Foraging Myopically [PDF]
Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, 2018 We study the dynamics of a \emph{myopic} forager that randomly wanders on a lattice in which each site contains one unit of food. Upon encountering a food-containing site, the forager eats all the food at this site with probability ...

Current Biology, 2022 Before visiting your local supermarket, do you write your food shopping list in the order you expect to encounter the items as you walk around, aisle by aisle? This way, you minimise your travel distance, saving time and effort. Many other animals do the same.

Neuroscience of foraging [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2014 The papers that accompany this Research Topic fall at the intersection of foraging theory and neuroscience. Why does such a topic merit a Research Topic in Frontiers in Decision Neuroscience? And what does foraging theory have to do with decision neuroscience?

Multimodal Locomotion: Next Generation Aerial–Terrestrial Mobile Robotics
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView., 2023 Aerial–terrestrial robots can achieve efficient energy consumption and robust environmental interaction by adding morphological features, adapting forms for locomotion transitions, and integrating multiple platforms. This next generation of mobile robots advances real‐world robotic deployment for operations with complex tasks and tackle environments ...

Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 1982 In Experiment 1, six naive pigeons were trained on a foraging schedule characterized by different states beginning with a search state in which completion of a fixed‐interval on a white key led to a choice state. In the choice state the subject could, by appropriate responding on a fixed ratio of three, either accept or reject the schedule of ...

Connection of mobility and foraging - A cross-cultural analysis
Etnoantropološki Problemi, 2007 The goal of this inquiry is to explore the existence and severity of the liaison in-between mobility and cattle breeding. The author has decided to test the hypothesis of a relation between mobility and cattle breading through quantitative analysis of a

Optimally frugal foraging [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2018 We introduce the \emph{frugal foraging} model in which a forager performs a discrete-time random walk on a lattice, where each site initially contains $\mathcal{S}$ food units. The forager metabolizes one unit of food at each step and starves to death when it last ate $\mathcal{S}$ steps in the past. Whenever the forager decides to eat, it consumes all

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2023 Foraging is an essential behavior for animal survival and requires both learning and decision-making skills. However, despite its relevance and ubiquity, there is still no effective mathematical framework to adequately estimate foraging performance that ...

European Journal of Entomology, 2006 Temporary malnutrition during juvenile development often negatively influences the life-history decisions of adults. Hence, individuals should avoid this effect by compensatory feeding on the limited resource when the food situation improves.
