TL;DR: Simulations show that predators have higher encounter rates when adopting Lévy-type foraging in natural-like prey fields compared with purely random landscapes, consistent with the hypothesis that observed search patterns are adapted to observed statistical patterns of the landscape.

TL;DR: The utility of signal processing techniques is demonstrated in objectively identifying both expected and unexpected periodicity in these continuous, high-resolution tracks of basking sharks.

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of time domain vibration features for detection and diagnosis of different faults from a multi-stage reciprocating compressor was investigated, where the effective diagnostic features were selected from PCA of 14 potential features and a PCA model based detection method using Hotelling's T2 and Q statistics was subsequently developed to detect various faults including suction valve leakage, inter-cooler leakage, loose drive belt, and combinations of discharge valve leakage with suction-valve leakage.

TL;DR: Results indicate temporal power-law scaling is a behavioural ‘rule of thumb’ that is tuned to species’ ecological traits, implying a common pattern may have naturally evolved that optimizes move–wait decisions in less predictable natural environments.

TL;DR: An algorithm of improving the performance of iterative decoding on perpendicular magnetic recording with signal-to-noise ratio mismatch technique and it is shown that an improvement of within one order of magnitude can be achieved.
