Disentangling influence over group speed and direction reveals multiple patterns of influence in moving meerkat groups

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Baptiste Averly from the DepartmentUniversity of have published the paper: Disentangling influence over group speed and direction reveals multiple patterns of influence in moving meerkat groups, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports
• what: For each metric, the authors evaluate a given individual's influence on the group by measuring the probability that the group's movement temporally follows that individual's movement. While this study cannot yet address these possibilities, the methods developed here provide a foundation for future studies investigating more detailed questions about how group composition and social structure shape the . . .
