Human judgment vs. theoretical models for the management of ecological resources [PDF]
Ecological Applications. Volume 26. Issue 5. Pages 1553-1565.
(2016), 2016 Despite major advances in quantitative approaches to natural resource management, there has been resistance to using these tools in the actual practice of managing ecological populations. Given a managed system and a set of assumptions, translated into a model, optimization methods can be used to solve for the most cost effective management actions ...

AI as a Child of Mother Earth: Regrounding Human-AI Interaction in Ecological Thinking [PDF]
The anthropocentric cultural idea that humans are active agents exerting control over their environments has been largely normalized and inscribed in practices, policies, and products of contemporary industrialized societies. This view underlies a human-ecology relationship based on resource and knowledge extraction.

Disentangling the effects of geographic and ecological isolation on genetic differentiation [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 Populations can be genetically isolated both by geographic distance and by differences in their ecology or environment that decrease the rate of successful migration. Empirical studies often seek to investigate the relationship between genetic differentiation and some ecological variable(s) while accounting for geographic distance, but common ...

Grounding Artificial Intelligence in the Origins of Human Behavior [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have revived the quest for agents able to acquire an open-ended repertoire of skills. However, although this ability is fundamentally related to the characteristics of human intelligence, research in this field rarely considers the processes that may have guided the emergence of complex cognitive ...

Human Gut Microbiota: Toward an Ecology of Disease
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Composed of trillions of individual microbes, the human gut microbiota has adapted to the uniquely diverse environments found in the human intestine. Quickly responding to the variances in the ingested food, the microbiota interacts with the host via ...
