Pigeons combine compass and landmark guidance in familiar route navigation.
How do birds orient over familiar terrain? In the best studied avian species, the homing pigeon (Columba livia), two apparently independent primary mechanisms are currently debated: either memorized visual landmarks provide homeward guidance directly, or birds rely on a compass to home from familiar locations. Using miniature Global Positioning System tracking technology and clock-shift procedu...
متن کاملClustering Landmark Image Annotations Based on Tag Location and Content
When exploring a new urban region you build a mental model of the space, firstly recognising landmarks, then joining these together into sequences to form routes, and finally building survey knowledge where you can begin to link up places and the spaces between (Hirtle & Jonides, 1985). Landmarks form a significant building block in this process, used to recognise places (Hirtle & Heidorn, 1993...
متن کاملThe Landmark Spider: Weaving the Landmark Web
Landmarks play an important role when humans navigate through foreign environments (Lynch, 1960; May, Ross, Bayer, and Tarkiainen, 2003). For example, trying to find the way is much easier if the navigator can rely on a description of the route based on well-recognizable objects in the environment, instead of navigating solely on the basis of street names and metric directions (Tom, and Denis, ...
متن کاملLandmark-Based Location Belief Tracking in a Spoken Dialog System
Many modern spoken dialog systems use probabilistic graphical models to update their belief over the concepts under discussion, increasing robustness in the face of noisy input. However, such models are ill-suited to probabilistic reasoning about spatial relationships between entities. In particular, a car navigation system that infers users’ intended destination using nearby landmarks as descr...
متن کاملVector-based and landmark-guided navigation in desert ants inhabiting landmark-free and landmark-rich environments.
Two species of desert ants - the North African Cataglyphis fortis and the central Australian Melophorus bagoti - differ markedly in the visual complexity of their natural habitats: featureless salt pans and cluttered, steppe-like terrain, respectively. Here we ask whether the two species differ in their navigational repertoires, in particular, whether in homing they place different emphasis on ...
