The classification and analysis of these signals is important because they are generated by many real-world processes. The first stage of the signal classification process entails the transformation of the signal into the multifractal dimension domain, through the computation of the variance fractal dimension trajectory (VFDT). Features can then be extracted from the VFDT using a Kohonen self-organizing feature map. The second stage involves the use of a complex domain neural network and a probabilistic neural network to determine the class of a signal based on these extracted features. The results of this paper show that these techniques can be successful in creating a classification system which can obtain correct classification rates of about 87% when performing classification of such signals without knowing the number of classes.}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2c17e569421e8459532fbedeb96482cb5/toby}, keywords = {pdfcopy betta-splendens cv swimming publication measurement behavior-analysis} } @misc{ABA2003-215, title = {Swimming patterns during habituation of agonistic display in betta splendens.}, author = {Toby L.

Studying the underwater behavior of marine mammals is difficult; light doesn’t travel far through water, and divers can’t keep within visual range of an animal capable of sustained speeds of 5 knots. Scientists can use sonar technologies to image marine mammals underwater, but sonar records provide only occasional brief glimpses of whales underwater. A new collaboration between visualization experts, engineers, and marine biologists has changed this. For the first time, we can see and study the foraging behavior of humpback whales. This is important not just for purely scientific reasons. Whales are dying because of ship collisions and entanglements with fishing gear in ever-increasing numbers. Understanding their behavior could lead to changes in shipping regulations or in the nature and deployment of fishing apparatus.}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/220c02e46664214c188a33e5aaf7052a4/toby}, keywords = {visualization pdfcopy swimming measurement whales} } @article{RefWorks:156, title = {Display reinforcement in the Siamese fighting fish, Betta splendens : Aggressive motivation or curiosity?}, author = {R.

The 3 experiments compared performance (measured by swimming speed and percent choice correct) to a variety of stimuli in the goal box. The stimulus that evoked the most vigorous aggressive display (a live conspecific) supported the highest level of performance; a stimulus that evoked no display (a marble) failed to sustain operant behavior. Stimuli that induced some aggression but also some escape (live nondisplay fish) supported performance at reduced levels. These results implicate aggression and not curiosity as the primary motivating factor. They also show that the responsiveness of the stimulus is a critical aspect of reinforcement and that the level of performance is determined by escape tendencies as well as aggression. It is proposed that failure of a stimulus to provide appropriate feedback constitutes an aversive event.}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2e471a70283a1a0173ed9e4e10db63caa/toby}, keywords = {speed betta-splendens maze swimming} } @article{RefWorks:145, title = {Runway behavior of Siamese fighting fish, Betta splendens, for aggressive display and food reinforcement}, author = {R.

Findings demonstrate that learned modifications of swimming mediated by social stimuli are possible in Bettas. Results suggest that Ss learned to exhibit conditioned gill-cover erection as part of a pattern of locomotion that could effectively maintain territories. Nearly all Ss learned to swim in proximity to visual and spatial cues previously presented with conspecific images. Results also suggest that territorial defense in some teleosts may be mediated by the association of social cues with visual and spatial stimuli.}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2d1eb40e7a147a2161f5e50a8c2d45e6a/toby}, keywords = {mirror visual territoriality spatial dissertation betta-splendens conditioning thesis-refs swimming gce} }
