This paper proposes a context-aware decision making framework for a maze solving robot. The proposed architecture utilizes a fuzzy integral based decision making scheme to select the best behavior according to the current environmental context of the robot. The simulation results show that despite having no prior information about the arrangement of the maze, the proposed cognitive architecture...

This study examined the effects of social housing manipulations on bodyweight, corticosterone levels, and performance of T-maze alternation in male CD-1 mice. Males that adopted a dominant social rank were heavier than those that adopted a subordinate social rank. Dominant males also had lower corticosterone concentrations than the subordinates. However, there was little to suggest that these p...

In the picturesque maze generation problem, we are given a rectangular black-and-white raster image and want to randomly generate a maze in which the solution path fills up the black pixels. While a simple formulation of the problem faces with NP-hardness, the proposed method generates such a maze in polynomial time by appropriately changing the formulation itself. Therefore, the algorithm itse...

Social cooperation is a state in which people work together on shared activity from they both benefit, and the success of each person dependent everyone doing their part. Imagine, for example, basketball game all team members make effort cooperate to win game. To study this kind social lab, we used rats. We created special maze two rats must coordinate behavior as pair, moving through sections ...

Materials and methods: Six Control group sows and six treatment (Banana) group sows were used, each with 10 piglets. Treatment consisted of daily topical application of isoamyl acetate (banana scent) on the skin of the sows’ mammary glands during the 21 days of suckling. Preference of the piglets for the banana scent was tested with a V-maze at 4 and 21 days of age. After weaning, pigs were reg...
