Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Some insects, including ants, bees, and moths, can locate the source of pheromone based on the olfactory information. Especially, male silk moth can reach his mate (pheromone source) from sparse pheromone detections in spite of his weak eyesight. In this study we develop a search algorithm by mimicking the procedure that an insect searched a pheromone source. The pheromone detections of a searcher are described by using a Point process model and an algorithm for estimating the position of the source is derived by applying the framework of Bayesian statistics. We also evaluate the performance of search algorithms by simulating the agent that locates a fixed pheromone source. In addition, we have developed a method for predicting the future access to an online content by applying the framework of Point process.
