By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – Researchers detail new data in artific ial intelligence. According to news reporting originating from Palmerston, New Z ealand, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, “Surprisingly little is known about how the home environment influences the behaviour of pet cats.” The news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Massey University: “This study aimed to determine how factors in the home environment (e.g., with o r without outdoor access, urban vs. rural, presence of a child) and the season i nfluences the daily behaviour of cats. Using accelerometer data and a validated machine learning model, behaviours including being active, eating, grooming, lit tering, lying, scratching, sitting, and standing were quantified for 28 pet cats . Generalized estimating equation models were used to determine the effects of d ifferent environmental conditions. Increasing cat age was negatively correlated with time spent active (p <0.05). Cats with outdoor access (n = 18) were less active in winter than in summer (p <0. 05), but no differences were observed between seasons for indoor-only (n = 10) c ats. Cats living in rural areas (n = 7) spent more time eating than cats in urba n areas (n = 21; p <0.05).”
