Inferring Animal Densities from Tracking Data Using Markov Chains
The distributions and relative densities of species are keys to ecology. Large amounts of tracking data are being collected on a wide variety of animal species using several methods, especially electronic tags that record location. These tracking data are effectively used for many purposes, but generally provide biased measures of distribution, because the starts of the tracks are not randomly ...
متن کاملInferring Social Structure of Animal Groups From Tracking Data
Inferring the social structures of animal groups from their observed behavior is a non-trivial task usually handled by direct observation. Recent advances in sensing and tracking technology have enabled the collection of dense spatial data over long periods of time automatically. The qualitative differences between sparse hand-coded data and dense tracking data necessitate a new approach to inf...
متن کاملNanomedicine for tuberculosis: Insights from animal models
Patient noncompliance to current tuberculosis (TB) therapy owing to multidrug administration daily leads to treatment failure and emergence of multidrug resistant and extensively drug resistant TB. To avoid the daily dosing, application of nanotechnology is the only viable solution by virtue of sustained release of drugs. Other potential advantages of the system include the possibility of selec...
