We investigated the spatial genetic structure of the tiger meta-population in the Satpura-Maikal landscape of central India using population- and individual-based genetic clustering methods on multilocus genotypic data from 273 individuals. The Satpura-Maikal landscape is classified as a global-priority Tiger Conservation Landscape (TCL) due to its potential for providing sufficient habitat tha...

Density dependence, population regulation, and variability in population size are fundamental population processes, the manifestation and interrelationships of which are affected by environmental variability. However, there are surprisingly few empirical studies that distinguish the effect of environmental variability from the effects of population processes. We took advantage of a unique syste...

This paper proposes a method to fuse learning strategies (LSs) in reinforcement learning framework. Generally, we need to choose a suitable LS for each task respectively. In contrast, the proposed method automates this selection by fusing LSs. The LSs fused in this paper includes a transfer learning, a hierarchical RL, and a model based RL. The proposed method has a wide applicability. When the...
