Fish are one of the most highly utilised vertebrate taxa by humans; they are harvested from
wild stocks as part of global fishing industries, grown under intensive aquaculture …

Cognitive maps are encoded in the hippocampal formation and related regions and range
from the spatial to the purely conceptual. Neural mechanisms that encode information into …

Many animals navigate using a combination of visual landmarks and path integration. In
mammalian brains, head direction cells integrate these two streams of information by …

Comprising a substantial part of living biomass on earth, ants are integral to the functioning
of terrestrial ecosystems. More than 12,000 species have been described to date, and it is …

How do pedestrians choose their paths within city street networks? Researchers have tried
to shed light on this matter through strictly controlled experiments, but an ultimate answer …

To track and control self-location, animals integrate their movements through space.
Representations of self-location are observed in the mammalian hippocampal formation, but …

We present an approach for agents to learn representations of a global map from sensor
data, to aid their exploration in new environments. To achieve this, we embed procedures …

A novel framework is proposed to incrementally collect landmark-based graph memory and
use the collected memory for image goal navigation. Given a target image to search, an …

When humans switched from hunting honeybee colonies living scattered in the wild to
keeping them in hives crowded in apiaries, they may have greatly increased disease …

From the traditional perspective of associative learning theory, the hypothesis linking
modifications of synaptic transmission to learning and memory is plausible. It is less so from …
