Microbiome Sample Comparison and Search: From Pair-Wise Calculations to Model-Based Matching
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 A huge quantity of microbiome samples have been accumulated, and more are yet to come from all niches around the globe. With the accumulation of data, there is an urgent need for comparisons and searches of microbiome samples among thousands of millions ...

Successive odor matching- and non-matching-to-sample in rats: A reversal design. [PDF]
Behav Processes, 2018 There is a growing body of research on matching- and non-matching-to-sample (MTS, NMTS) relations with rats using olfactory stimuli; however, the specific characteristics of this relational control are unclear. In the current study we examine MTS and NMTS in rats with an automated olfactometer using a successive (go, no-go) procedure.

Facilitation of equivalence – equivalence responding: generalization of relational responses
International Journal of Psychological Research, 2011 Equivalence-equivalence responding (Eq-Eq) has become a behaviour analytic model of analogical reasoning. In previous works it was demonstrated that the exposition to a non-arbitrary relational task (facilitation procedure) improves performance in Eq-Eq ...

SAMPLE‐SPECIFIC RATIO EFFECTS IN MATCHING TO SAMPLE [PDF]
Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 1983 In a symbolic matching‐to‐sample task, pigeons were trained using sample‐specific, fixed‐ratio “observing responses.” Subsequently, in a mixed condition, each sample was presented equally often with each ratio requirement, i.e., the ratios were no longer correlated with the samples.

Familiar and unfamiliar face recognition in crested macaques (Macaca nigra) [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2015 Many species use facial features to identify conspecifics, which is necessary to navigate a complex social environment. The fundamental mechanisms underlying face processing are starting to be well understood in a variety of primate species.

Establishing Lagrangian connections between observations within air masses crossing the Atlantic during the International Consortium for Atmospheric Research on Transport and Transformation experiment [PDF]
, 2006 The ITCT-Lagrangian-2K4 (Intercontinental Transport and Chemical Transformation) experiment was conceived with an aim to quantify the effects of photochemistry and mixing on the transformation of air masses in the free troposphere away from emissions. To

What did you choose just now? Chimpanzees’ short-term retention of memories of their own behavior [PDF]
PeerJ, 2014 Many recent comparative studies have addressed “episodic” memory in nonhuman animals, suggesting that birds, rodents, great apes, and others can remember their own behavior after at least a half-day delay.

Patterns of eye movement in matching-to-sample tasks
Psicologia: Reflexão e Crítica, 2016 The present study evaluated whether during a matching-to-sample procedure (MTS), the time spent observing stimuli is related to the establishment of selection or rejection controlling relationships in human participants.
