A giant panda’s uncanny imitation of its zookeeper has gone viral, showing the bear strolling with paws behind its back. The clip has sparked millions of views and discussions about animal ...

Deep learning-based animal activity recognition (AAR) achieves promising performance but remains constrained by its reliance on large labeled datasets. While pre-training offers a viable path toward ...

Habits are often seen as automatic and inflexible behaviors. But a new study, published in Evolution Letters, suggests that ...

With a new markerless method it is now possible to track the gaze and fine-scaled behaviors of every individual bird and how that animal moves in the space with others. A research team from the ...

Studies of associative learning have commonly focused on how rewarding outcomes are predicted by either sensory stimuli or animals’ actions. However, in many learning scenarios, reward delivery ...

Behavioral analysis can provide a lot of information about the health status or motivations of a living being. A new technology makes it possible for a single deep learning model to detect animal ...

The bird has never gotten much credit for being intelligent. But the reinforcement learning powering the world’s most advanced AI systems is far more pigeon than human. In 1943, while the world’s ...
