Cleaner wrasse Labroides dimidiatus perform above chance in a "matching-to-sample" experiment. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2022 Concept learning have been studied widely in non-human animal species within or not an ecological context. Here we tested whether cleaner fish Labroides dimidiatus, which show generalised rule learning in an ecologically relevant context; they generalise

Visual Discrimination Task in Guppies Using a Simultaneous Matching-to-Sample Procedure [PDF]
AnimalsCognitive abilities in fish have been widely demonstrated using experimental protocols commonly adopted with mammals and birds. Only a few studies have tested fish in the simultaneous match-to-sample task (sMTS), and mixed evidence regarding their ...

Matching-to-Sample Task Training of a Killer Whale (Orcinus orca) [PDF]
AnimalsMatching-to-sample tasks have been a useful method in visual cognitive studies on non-human animals. The use of touch panels in matching-to-sample tasks has contributed to cognitive studies on terrestrial animals; however, there has been a difficulty in ...

Rigorous Training of Dogs Leads to High Accuracy in Human Scent Matching-To-Sample Performance. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Human scent identification is based on a matching-to-sample task in which trained dogs are required to compare a scent sample collected from an object found at a crime scene to that of a suspect.

Differences of Training Structures on Stimulus Class Formation in Computational Agents
Multimodal Technologies and Interaction, 2023 Stimulus Equivalence (SE) is a behavioural phenomenon in which organisms respond functionally to stimuli without explicit training. SE provides a framework in the experimental analysis of behaviour to study language, symbolic behaviour, and cognition. It

Familiarity, Active Memory And Pressure During A Delayed Matching-To-Sample Task In Tufted Capuchin Monkeys (Sapajus [Cebus] Apella) [PDF]
Animal Behavior and CognitionDelayed matching-to-sample (DMTS) tasks are commonly used in the field of comparative cognition to study memory, including working memory. However, specific task demands vary across studies and species, and as such, DMTS tasks may engage different memory
