Weekend break was fun, now back to work 👍 Whilst the first week was teaching heavy, the second week is focusing on the learned new methods using data sets that everyone has brought along to work with.

The fourth day of #AnimoveCR was all about environmental context, how to download and process information about our planet (remote sensing and climate data).
The day ended with a fantastic talk by @njklappstein.bsky.social speaking about her research on polar bears 🐻‍❄️

Second day of #AnimoveCR was all about the geometry of movement trajectories and their behavioural segmentation using hidden markov models.....but also a little bit of shopping 🤗

New paper!

We propose a framework to empirically study animal social relationships by modelling social network (SN) data as time-series—that is, without the need to aggregate them over time.
