Distance sampling: comparing walked transects and road transects for rock ptarmigan densities and population trends

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
We compared population trends for rock ptarmigan Lagopus muta densities (2003‒2019) derived from walked transects and driven road transects in Mosfellsheiði and Slétta in southwest and northeast Iceland, respectively. The walked transects were laid out according to a random rule.

Does a decision support tool designed to depict West Nile virus risk explain variation in ruffed grouse Bonasa umbellus use of managed forests?

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Infectious diseases are commonly cited as significant contributors to wildlife population declines. It is, therefore, important to investigate the extent to which tools designed to mitigate the effects of infectious diseases explain wildlife responses to habitat management.

Assessing the utility of autonomous recording units and spring point counts for monitoring abundance of ruffed grouse Bonasa umbellus

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The ruffed grouse Bonasa umbellus is a species of conservation concern that has declined across most of its range. At the southeastern trailing edge of the range in Georgia, grouse are restricted to elevations 600 m a.s.l. and abundance is relatively low.

TNCOA: Efficient Exploration via Observation‐Action Constraint on Trajectory‐Based Intrinsic Reward

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient exploration is critical in handling sparse rewards and partial observability in deep reinforcement learning. However, most existing intrinsic reward methods based on novelty rely on single‐step observations or Euclidean distances.

Temporal Dependency‐Aware Trajectory‐Level Behavioural Metric for Exploration in Reinforcement Learning

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intrinsic motivation serves as the predominant paradigm of exploration in reinforcement learning. In pursuit of an informative and robust state representation, the behavioural metric groups behaviourally equivalent states together, which share the same single‐step reward and transition distribution.

Quantitative Evaluation of Mechanical Defects for Circuit Breakers Based on Self‐Adaptive Fault Feature Tracking

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many researchers are committed to improving the diagnosis accuracy and solving the few‐shot problem on circuit breakers (CBs). However, the research on the vibration transmission mechanism of the fault is insufficient, which makes it difficult to find the potential design defects of CBs through vibration.
