Evaluation of turn alternation in pill bugs using omnidirectional motion compensator ANTAM
Pages 770 - 776
Abstract
In this study, whether pill bugs produce turn alternation, i.e., the tendency to turn in the opposite direction of a preceding turn, under obstacle-free conditions was investigated by movement measurements using an omnidirectional motion compensator ANTAM. The results showed that turn alternation was observed at the microscopic observation level (sampling frequency 10 Hz). On the other hand, repeated turns in the same direction were observed more often than turn alternations at the macroscopic observation level (1 Hz). These results suggest that under obstacle-free conditions, the pill bug moves in a microscopic left–right and macroscopic arc, and that it has at least two turn control mechanisms.

Behavioral pattern of pill bugs revealed in virtually infinite multiple T-maze
A behavior called turn alternation has been studied extensively in terrestrial isopods. This behavior is seen when they alternate their path choice on successive trials of the T-maze test. We made the multiple T-maze device which consists of two ...
From bidirectionality to alternation
We describe an explicit simulation of 2-way nondeterministic automata by 1-way alternating automata with quadratic blow-up. We first describe the construction for automata on finite words, and extend it to automata on infinite words.
Alternation
SFCS '76: Proceedings of the 17th Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer ScienceWe define alternating Turing Machines which are like nondeterministic Turing Machines, except that existential and universal quantifiers alternate. Alternation links up time and space complexities rather well, in that alternating polynomial time equals ...
