Preferences for nesting material as environmental enrichment for laboratory mice.
Behavioural and psychological needs of laboratory animals generally cannot adequately be met in standard laboratory cages. Environmental enrichment, which provides a more structured environment can enhance the well-being of laboratory animals. They may perform more of their species-specific behaviour and may control their environment in a better way. An easily applicable form of enrichment for ...
متن کاملRobotic clicker training
In this paper, we want to propose the idea that some techniques used for animal training might be helpful for solving human–robot interaction problems in the context of entertainment robotics. We present a model for teaching complex actions to an animal-like autonomous robot based on “clicker training”, a method used efficiently by professional trainers for animals of different species. After d...

متن کاملAssessment of Clicker Training for Shelter Cats
Clicker training has the potential to mitigate stress among shelter cats by providing environmental enrichment and human interaction. This study assessed the ability of cats housed in a shelter-like setting to learn new behaviors via clicker training in a limited amount of time. One hundred shelter cats were enrolled in the study. Their baseline ability to perform four specific behaviors touchi...
متن کاملIntroducing a bony composite as tissue equivalent for radiotherapy phantoms
The use of a device that simulates the actual condition, as well as being equivalent to the human body in materials and tissues, and having the capability of acting like internal motions of human body is necessary to investigate and simulate the motion of a tumor in radiotherapy and to evaluate dosimetrical coverage of the dynamic target. This device which is called the dynamic phantom should s...
