Statistical modelling of individual animal movement: an overview of key methods and a discussion of practical challenges
With the influx of complex and detailed tracking data gathered from electronic tracking devices, the analysis of animal movement data has recently emerged as a cottage industry amongst biostatisticians. New approaches of ever greater complexity are constantly being added to the literature. In this paper, we review what we believe to be some of the most popular and most useful classes of statist...
متن کاملHow animals move along? Exactly solvable model of superdiffusive spread resulting from animal's decision making.
Patterns of individual animal movement have been a focus of considerable attention recently. Of particular interest is a question how different macroscopic properties of animal dispersal result from the stochastic processes occurring on the microscale of the individual behavior. In this paper, we perform a comprehensive analytical study of a model where the animal changes the movement velocity ...
متن کاملNon-Markovianmaximum likelihood estimation of autocorrelatedmovement processes
1 By viewing animal movement paths as realizations of a continuous stochastic process, we introduce a rigorous likelihood method for estimating the statistical parameters of movement processes. This method makes no assumption of a hiddenMarkov property, places no special emphasis on the sampling rate, is insensitive to irregular sampling and data gaps, can produce reasonable estimates with limi...
متن کاملReflected Stochastic Differential Equation Models for 1 Constrained Animal Movement
5 Movement for many animal species is constrained in space by barriers such as rivers, shore6 lines, or impassable cliffs. We develop an approach for modeling animal movement con7 strained in space by considering a class of constrained stochastic processes, reflected stochas8 tic differential equations. Our approach generalizes existing methods for modeling uncon9 strained animal movement. We p...
متن کاملA Context-aware Architecture for Mental Model Sharing through Semantic Movement in Intelligent Agents
Recent studies in multi-agent systems are paying increasingly more attention to the paradigm of designing intelligent agents with human inspired concepts. One of the main cognitive concepts driving the core of many recent approaches in multi agent systems is shared mental models. In this paper, we propose an architecture for sharing mental models based on a new concept called semantic movement....
