Comparative evaluation of funnel, box, and camera traps for reptile and amphibian inventory

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We used data from 5 herpetological inventories conducted in Florida to evaluate the relative efficacy of funnel, box, and motion‐triggered camera traps for detecting reptile and amphibian species along drift‐fence arrays. Our results suggest that a hybrid array design (funnel traps + central camera trap) is best suited for general herpetofaunal ...

Learning shepherding behavior.

, 2016
Artificial shepherding strategies, i.e. using robots to move individuals to given locations, have many applications. For example, people can be guided by mobile robots from dangerous places or swimming robots may help to clean up oil spills. This thesis uses a multiagent system to model the robots and sheep. We analyze the complexity of the shepherding
