Accurate and prompt localization of hazardous release sources ensures a timely emergency
response to potential damages. Robot odor source localization is the study of locating the …

Robotic odor source localization (OSL) has been viewed as a challenging task due to the
turbulent nature of airflows and the resulting odor plume characteristics. The key to solving …

Animal behavior and neural recordings show that the brain is able to measure both the
intensity and the timing of odor encounters. However, whether intensity or timing of odor …

Odor-guided navigation is an indispensable aspect of flying insects' behavior, facilitating
crucial activities such as foraging and mating. The interaction between aerodynamics and …

We and others have shown that during odor plume navigation, walking Drosophila
melanogaster bias their motion upwind in response to both the frequency of their encounters …

Chemosensory science, the study of how organisms produce and assess olfactory
information, is central to our understanding of how organisms interact and gain information …

Odor-guided navigation is fundamental to the survival and reproductive success of many
flying insects. Despite its biological importance, the mechanics of how insects sense and …

In order to survive, animals often need to navigate a complex odor landscape where odors
can exist in airborne plumes. Several odor plume properties change with distance from the …

Autonomous ocean-exploring vehicles have begun to take advantage of onboard sensor
measurements of water properties such as salinity and temperature to locate oceanic …

Although mice locate resources using turbulent airborne odor plumes, the stochasticity and
intermittency of fluctuating plumes create challenges for interpreting odor cues in natural …
