Reproductive behaviour: 1-Sexual behaviour in animalsrhfayed
Reproductive Behaviour involve behaviour patterns associated with courtship, copulation, birth, maternal care and with suckling attempts of newborn. It is species specific behaviour
Animal behaviour is any activity performed by an animal in response to an internal or external stimuli or combination of both. Every behaviour of animal is more or less controlled by a genetical component. Some behaviours are controlled by a single or a few genes. Other behaviours are controlled by a set of genes through complex interplay.

Explanation of learning sets
Learning sets facilitate learning
Explanation of differences
Introduction
Behavioral enrichment, also known as environmental enrichment, is "the environmental enhancement of the lives of captive animals by providing them with mental and physical stimulation to increase natural and healthy behavior" (Kolifrath, 2009). Any efforts used to allow animals to behave in tone to their natural instincts or abilities are known as enrichment. When animals do not receive enrichment they become bored and may result to self-destructive behaviors and even withdraw. “The USDA requires five elements of zoo enrichment program that consist of social grouping, structure and substrate, foraging opportunities, stimulating all five senses, and training” (Kolifrath, 2009). A local zoo has asked the team to help them create naturalistic learning situation for their primate family collection. This presentation will offer an explanation of learning sets obtained from the video. It will also state how learning sets facilitate learning in both chimpanzees and humans. And include an explanation of differences shown between chimpanzees and humans in transfer of learning.

General skills can be used for general problems.
Experiences play an important part in learning.
The monkeys used the cognitive representation by remembering what they learned from the pervious experiments
Monkey’s applied a general rule for the learning concepts
Transfer of learning taking place.
Explanation of Learning Sets
Learning sets for the animals is like trial and error, the animals then follow the new insight from what they learned. The learning sets were used on the monkey’s. Just like in the video we learned about the monkey’s being shown two object and how they received some sort of reward for choosing the right type of design. With the learning sets the monkey’s were able to gain some sort of general skill that was present when they were trying to solve similar problems. The cognitive representation was present when the monkey’s showed that they had remembered some of these traits, rules, etc. from the previous experiences that they had gone through ( getting the reward). This shows that they learned something and applied the rules that they learned to their next experience. These learning sets show that there was some sort of transfer of learning that was taking place.

This PPT contains topic Learning from Unit 3 Cognitive Process of the subject Psychology for F.Y.B.SC.Nursing.
Learning, as a cognitive process, involves acquiring knowledge, skills, understanding, and behaviors through experience, study, practice, or teaching. It's a fundamental aspect of human cognition, enabling individuals to adapt, solve problems, make decisions, and improve their performance in various domains of life. Cognitive processes play a critical role in how we perceive, encode, store, and retrieve information during the learning process.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

- Ethology: The study of animals.
- Behaviour: Some action that occurs in response to a particular stimulus (pl. stimuli).
Draw a table on the board: Innate (inborn) behaviour
Innate (inborn) behaviour. Learned behaviour.
Rhythmic behaviours
- Daily (feeding/sleeping)
- Seasonal (migration)

Tell students to draw this in their books.
- What determines innate behaviour?
- What determines learned behaviour?
Innate (inborn) behaviour
- Genetically controlled
- Same for all members of species
Learned behaviour.
- Develop or change as result of experience
Forms of innate behaviour:
Rhythmic behaviours (eat/sleep): Animals repeat behaviours at regular intervals.
- Regulated by internal factors (biological clock) and external factors (light).
- Different species of animals may follow different patterns of rhythmic behaviour.
Communication behaviours
Reproductive behaviours
Competitive behaviours
Dominance hierarchies
Territoriality
Communication can be through touch, posture, sound, visual display, chemical signals.

(1) Show bowerbird video, then go through worked example.
Communication between animals involves a number of components (page 349)
Aspect of communication Particular case with bowerbird
Stimulus Desire to mate
Sender Male bowerbird
Receiver to whom the signal is directed Female reading to mate
Kind of signal sent Appearance of carefully made and decorated
bower
How the signal is sent Visual image
Behaviour of the receiver Attracted to the bower
Setting in which the communication occurs Courtship behaviour
(2) Approx 10 minutes: Now show video of bees communicating (or use students’ example),
and get students to work with the person next to them to determine the aspects of
communication.
Aspect of communication Particular case with bowerbird
Stimulus (what makes them want to
communicate)
Desire to tell other bees about where the
pollen is
Sender A bee
Receiver to whom the signal is directed Other forager bees
Kind of signal sent Waggle dance
How the signal is sent Movement/posture
Behaviour of the receiver Flying to the flowers
Setting in which the communication occurs To work as a team to find the pollen
- If there is time… Approx 15 minutes: Have students split into 5 groups of 3-4, assign
each group with a type of innate behaviour of an animal (except communication), and do
a quick research on it, then present to the class (for ideas, see pages 344-356).
20 An innate behaviour is not necessarily fully developed at birth and may be modified by
learning. New information (from experience) can be used to modify or improve a previous
behaviour.
E.g. (page 356) Immediately after hatching, many of the chick’s pecks are inaccurate. Only about
a third of the pecks strike the parent’s beak. On the second day about 50 per cent of the pecks are
accurate, and by the third day a steady level of more than 75 per cent accuracy is achieved. A
chick becomes more accurate in aiming its pecks as a result of practice. The more accurately a
chick pecks, then the quicker a parent will respond to the request for food. This is important if a
chick is to receive sufficient food for it to survive and grow.
Learned Behaviour
Brainstorm a list of “learned behaviours” with the class.
Ask the class: How do we learn?
Shown how to do something
Copy someone else
Trial-and-error
EXERCISE:
3. - The behaviour of the young duck in following the mother shortly after hatching is
important in fixing behaviour later in life, because later in maturity, it will try to mate
only with a duck of the same species as the hatching mother. Also, the mother can protect
her young if they are close by.
A biologist wished to find out whether this ability for ducklings to follow their mother was innate
(instinctive) or learned. Think of an experiment to test whether the following behaviour is mostly
instinctive or learned,
i.e. how did they know to follow the mother? Did the mother teach the ducklings to follow her?
Answer: separate into 2 groups
(a) 1 group with mother at hatching
(b) 1 group without replacement mother at hatching (e.g. a flag)
Keep all the factors the same: i.e. temperature, environment.
Observe following behaviour.
What results would support the hypothesis that the behaviour was innate?
Group B would have the same following behaviour as group A.
How did this learning occur? Answer: Imprinting.
(3 & 4) Show videos of imprinting.
