Towards activity databases: Using sensors and statistical models to summarize people’s lives
- IEEE Data Eng. Bull
, 2006
"... Automated reasoning about human behavior is a central goal of artificial intelligence. In order to engage and intervene in a meaningful way, an intelligent system must be able to understand what humans are doing, their goals and intentions. Furthermore, as social animals, people’s interactions with ..."

The Arena System: a novel shared touch-panel apparatus for the study of chimpanzee social interaction and cognition
"... Abstract We report on the development of a novel shared touch-panel apparatus for examining a diverse range of topics in great ape social cognition and interaction. Our apparatusnamed the Arena System-is composed of a single multitouch monitor that spans across two separate testing booths, so that ..."

of topics including animal social learning, coordination, and behavioral economics. The system enables fully automated experimental procedures, which means that no human participation is needed to run the tasks. The novel use of a touch-panel in a social setting allows for a finer degree of data resolution
ARTICLES The Effects of Visitor Density and Intensity on the Behavior of Two Captive Jaguars (Panthera onca)
"... Several researchers have reported significant effects of visitor density and intensity on captive animal behavior. This study determined whether this was the case for 2 captive jaguars housed at the Woodland Park Zoo, Seattle, WA. Subjects were moni-tored for changes in behavior as a function of vis ..."

Positive behavioral support: Strategies for teachers. Family Connection Beach Center on Families and Disabilities
, 1998
"... Abstract Positive behavioral support (PBS) is a comprehensive, research-based proactive approach to behavioral support that endeavors to generate comprehensive change for students with challenging behavior. It involves identifying the purpose of challenging behavior, teaching appropriate alternativ ..."

Flycatchers Copy Conspecifics in Nest-Site Selection but Neither Personal Experience nor Frequency of Tutors Have an Effect
"... Abstract Using the behavior of others in guiding one's own behavior is a common strategy in animals. The prevailing theory predicts that young age and the inexperience of an individual are expected to increase the probability of adopting the behaviors of others. Also, the most common behavior ..."

depict nestsite features. By manipulating the apparent symbol choices of early settled individuals and monitoring the choices of later arriving birds, we can study social information use without bias from learned or innate preferences. Flycatchers were found to use social information in the selection
SIMULATION, DEVELOPMENT AND DEPLOYMENT OF MOBILE WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS FOR MIGRATORY BIRD TRACKING
, 2012
"... This thesis presents CraneTracker, a multi-modal sensing and communication system for monitoring migratory species at the continental level. By exploiting the robust and extensive cellular infrastructure across the continent, traditional mobile wireless sensor networks can be extended to enable reli ..."

"... Soci al cognition refers to the processes that subserve behavior in response to conspecifics (other individuals of the same species), and, in particular, to those higher cognitive processes subserving the extremely diverse and flexible social behaviors that are seen in primates. Its evolution arose ..."

The challenge for the future will be to offer a more precise account of the interplay

"... • Rhesus monkey infants subjected to three 4-h exposures to sevoflurane manifested increased anxious behavior when confronted with an intruder. The increased anxiety was not attributable to changes in physiologic function during anesthesia. • Vocalizations, fear, and irritable behavior, in an age-s ..."
