State-space models for the dynamics of wild animal populations
We develop a unified framework for jointly defining population dynamics models and measurements taken on a population. The framework is a state-space model where the population processes are modelled by the state process and measurements are modelled by the observation process. In many cases, the expected value for the state process can be represented as a generalisation of the standard populat...
متن کاملHidden process models for animal population dynamics.
Hidden process models are a conceptually useful and practical way to simultaneously account for process variation in animal population dynamics and measurement errors in observations and estimates made on the population. Process variation, which can be both demographic and environmental, is modeled by linking a series of stochastic and deterministic subprocesses that characterize processes such...
متن کاملState-space models of individual animal movement.
Detailed observation of the movement of individual animals offers the potential to understand spatial population processes as the ultimate consequence of individual behaviour, physiological constraints and fine-scale environmental influences. However, movement data from individuals are intrinsically stochastic and often subject to severe observation error. Linking such complex data to dynamical...
متن کاملHeuristic Rules , Bounding and State Space Reduction
An alternative approach towards dynamic programming (DP) is presented: Recursions. A basic deterministic model and solution function are defined and the model is generalized to include stochastic processes, with the traditional stochastic DP model as a special case. Heuristic rules are included in the models simply as restrictions on decision spaces and a small slaughter pig marketing planning ...
متن کاملBounding the Population Size in XCS to Ensure Reproductive Opportunities
Despite several recent successful comparisons and applications of the accuracy-based learning classifier system XCS, it is hardly understood how crucial parameters should be set in XCS nor how XCS can be expect to scale up in larger problems. Previous research identified a covering challenge in XCS that needs to be obeyed to ensure that the genetic learning process takes place. Furthermore, a s...
