Brown hyaena feeding ecology on Namibian farmlands
We identified the diet of brown hyaenas (Hyaena brunnea) on the farmlands of north-central Namibia based on scat analysis, den site orts, and evidence of scavenging at leopard (Panthera pardus) kills. In the absence of larger carnivores, which have been credited with providing larger food items for brown hyaenas elsewhere, we compared interspecific dietary overlap and activity patterns with the...
متن کاملOnly Aggressive Elephants are Fast Elephants
Yellow elephants are slow. A major reason is that they consume their inputs entirely before responding to an elephant rider’s orders. Some clever riders have trained their yellow elephants to only consume parts of the inputs before responding. However, the teaching time to make an elephant do that is high. So high that the teaching lessons often do not pay off. We take a different approach. We ...
متن کاملElephants and Optimality Again
Children display a surprising delay in correctly resolving pronouns, while they employ Chomsky’s binding principles correctly in production and in resolving reflexives. We account for the mistakes as performance errors that are predicted by an Optimality Theoretical model implemented using simulated annealing. Our experiments suggest three novel explanations of the facts. Additionally, the Opti...
متن کاملOf Ants and Elephants
Investigations of multi-robot systems often make implicit assumptions concerning the computational capabilities of the robots. Despite the lack of explicit attention to the computational capabilities of robots, two computational classes of robots emerge as the focal points of recent research: Robot Ants and robot Elephants. Ants have poor memory and communication capabilities, but are able to c...
متن کاملOf Elephants and Men
In the elephant paper, Brooks criticized the ungrounded-ness of traditional symbol systems and proposed physically grounded systems as an alternative. We want to make a contribution towards integrating the old with the new. We describe the GLAIR agent architecture that speciies an integration of explicit representation and reasoning mechanisms, embodied semantics through grounding symbols in pe...
