The best metrics for identifying self-organisation

Self-organisation is one of the key properties of complex systems yet automated tools to identify it have yet to be applied to systems other than toy models such as the Game of Life. Lachlan’s work is looking at implementing system complexity, Chan’s interaction metric, limited bandwidth recognition, de-centralised emergence detection and multi-scale Shannon entropy. His experiments […]

Research Grant: Drones for Good: Airborne spatial tracking for saving endangered species. D. Ranasinghe, L. P. Koh, K. Falkner, B. Ostendorf, G. Puddy, ARC Linkage Project ($181,194) (2016-2018)

This project aims to develop an automated and distributed spatial tracking approach using low cost Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) to locate and study endangered wildlife. Understanding animal behaviour and habits with granular spatial data is essential to develop effective monitoring and conservation strategies. Spatial tracking of radio collared wildlife using radio telemetry is a critical […]
