Investment Choice and Perceived Mating Intentions Regulated by External Resource Cues and Internal Fluctuation in Blood Glucose Levels

Frontiers in Psychology, 2015
We examined resource allocation priorities in the framework of an updated Maslow hierarchy of fundamental human needs. In Experiment 1, the participants in the food abundance priming condition viewing photos of high-calorie food allocated more money to ...

Adaptive bacterial foraging optimization algorithm based on social foraging strategy [PDF]

, 2014
In 2002, K. M. Passino proposed Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm (BFOA) for distributed optimization and control. Biologic foraging strategies are diverse.

The influence of spatial patterns in foraging habitat on the abundance and home range size of a vulnerable arboreal marsupial in southeast Australia

Conservation Science and Practice, 2021
Wildlife can persist in a range of landscape configurations, but population densities can vary due to resource availability. Resources and environmental conditions shaping habitat suitability may be spatially dispersed or clumped, which can drive habitat

Adaptation of Apis mellifera jemenitica (Hymenoptera: Apidae) to high temperatures: Morphological, behavioural, and physiological aspects

European Journal of Entomology
Temperature affects the distribution and success of Apis mellifera subspecies. To survive high temperatures in their natural habitats, unique adaptive traits have been evolved by various A. mellifera subspecies. A.

The foraging behaviour of hummingbirds through space and time [PDF]

, 2015
Central place foragers, such as territorial hummingbirds, feed from resources that tend to be constant in space and to replenish with time (e.g. nectar in flowers).

The optimization of cooperative bacterial foraging [PDF]

, 2009
Bacterial Foraging Optimization (BFO) is a novel optimization algorithm based on the social foraging behavior of E coli bacteria This paper presents a variation on the original BFO algorithm, namely the Cooperative Bacterial Foraging Optimization (CBFO),

Foraging Connections: Optimal Foraging in Letter Fluency

The letter fluency task is the timed listing of words that begin with a specific letter (e.g., words starting with T). Participants often list words in phonologically related clusters (e.g., tank, task, tap) and occasionally switch clusters (e.g., tap, thud). This process has been likened to patch switching in animal foraging.

Comparative foraging ecology of two broad-ranging migrants, grey plover Pluvialis Squatarola and whimbrel Numenius Phaeopus (Aves: Charadrii), in tropical and temperate latitudes of the Western Indian Ocean [PDF]

, 1994
Bibliography: leaves 186-205.A seasonal study of the nonbreeding foraging ecology of Grey Plovers and Whimbrels was undertaken at the Zwartkops estuary, South Africa, and additional data were collected from a variety of sites in tropical and south ...
