Behavioral responses of silverback gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) to videos.
This study examined the impact of video presentations on the behavior of 4 silverback, western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla). On each of 5 occasions, gorillas viewed 6 types of videos (blue screen, humans, an all-male or mixed-sex group engaged in low activity, and an all-male or mixed-sex group engaged in agonistic behavior). The study recorded behavioral responses and watching ra...
متن کاملSensory Adaptations of Fishes to Subterranean Environments
Caves and other subterranean habitats represent one of the most challenging environments on the planet. Other than salamanders, bony fishes are the only vertebrate group that has successfully colonized and are completely restricted to those habitats. Despite being known to science for over 150 years, only recently have cavefishes become model systems for evolutionary studies. Several cavefishes...
متن کاملMuscle adaptations in extreme environments
Many environmental factors may affect muscle plasticity but some have exclusive characteristics that allow them to play a key role to maintain the muscle capacity to generate force; these factors are: i) the oxygen availability and ii) the load applied to muscle fibres. Hyperbarism is a condition that occurs when a man is subjected to pressure increases. To keep the lungs from collapsing, the a...
متن کاملReconstruction from Memory in Naturalistic Environments
Many aspects of our experiences do not have to be explicitly remembered, but can be inferred based on our knowledge of the regularities in our environment. In this chapter, we investigate the interaction between episodic memory and prior knowledge in naturalistic environments. In contrast to previous studies that suggest a detrimental effect of prior knowledge, we show that when using stimuli t...
متن کاملMultimodal signal processing in naturalistic noisy environments
When a system must process spoken language in natural environments that involve different types and levels of noise, the problem of supporting robust recognition is a very difficult one. In the present studies, over 2,600 multimodal utterances were collected during both mobile and stationary use of a multimodal pen/voice system. The results confirmed that multimodal signal processing supports s...
