Expanding the use of spatial models in statistical ecology
(University of St Andrews, 2022-06-14) - ThesisThis thesis is focused on expanding the use of spatial modelling approaches for applications in ecology. Spatial ecology is about understanding the processes that give rise to spatial patterns in ecological data. In addition ... -
Counting processes for spatial capture-recapture
(2023-11-28) - ThesisEstimates of animal density, the number of individuals per unit area, are critically important for understanding ecological processes affecting wildlife management. Increasingly, modern technology like camera traps and ... -
Combining spatially adaptive statistical modelling methods and computer vision approaches for the automatic detection of animals from high resolution images
(2022-11-29) - ThesisThis study aimed to automate detecting animals in aerial images and improve detection by combining computer vision techniques with statistical modelling of the surveyed area. Knowing the number of animals in an area ... -
