Vigilance, Flock Size, and Flock Geometry: Information Gathering by Western Evening Grosbeaks (Aves, Fringillidae)
Vigilance (scanning) and other behavior patterns were studied in free-ranging Evening Grosbeaks (Coccothraustes vespertinus) at feeders to assess how flock size and flock geometry influenced the behavior of individual birds. The present results indicate that the way in which individual grosbeaks are positioned with respect to one another effects many aspects of their behavior, especially when a...
متن کاملFlock Patterns and Context
The wide deployment of location detection devices (for example, smartphones) leads to collecting of large datasets in the form of trajectories. There are a whole set of papers devoted to trajectory-based queries. Mostly, they are concentrated on similarity queries. In the same time, there is a constantly groving interest in getting various forms for aggregating behavior of trajectories as group...
متن کاملA New Semifield Flock
Let K be a quadratic cone of PG(3, q) with vertex v. A flock F of K is a partition of K"[v] into q conics. If all planes containing the elements of the flock F share a common line, then F is called linear. Given a flock F there is a standard construction of a generalized quadrangle Q(F) associated with F ([19]), which is classical if and only if F is a linear flock. Article ID jcta.1998.2933, a...
متن کاملThe Genetic Flock Algorithm
The purpose of this paper is to describe and evaluate a new algorithm for optimization. The new algorithm is named the Genetic Flock Algorithm. This algorithm is a type of hybrid of a Genetic Algorithm and a Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm. The paper discusses strengths and weaknesses of these two algorithms. It then explains how the Genetic Flock Algorithm combines features of both and g...
متن کاملFlock morphing animation
We propose a new animation technique, called flock morphing, to create special morphing effects between two arbitrary 3D objects by combining the features of 3D morphing and flock animation. Its core idea is first to tetrahedralize the source 3D mesh and regard each tetrahedron as an agent in a flock and then continually generate the flock morphing animation until the target mesh emerges, forme...
