Experienced bear hunters say that on a warm day a man can run down a polar bear even on rough-surfaced ice. With their excellent cooling ability by panting, dogs can overtake a bear on ice. These examples illustrate diversity and limitations in thermal regulatory devices and behavior. View ...

Furthermore, we interpolate gaps, smooth the overall movement and collapse multiple detections of the same polar bear at the same time to a single position. We use a particle filter to correct these errors, since it can be implemented intuitively and adapted to problem-specific circumstances. We...
