Distribution Pattern Learning for Social Resources in a Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey Community

The law of survival of the fittest and struggle for existence of wildlife in nature is closely related to food. We can imagine that lock of food is the root cause of wildlife endangerment. Thus, it would be very meaningful if the monitoring data could confirm the importance of food for survival. To illustrate functioning rules of the golden snub-nosed monkey society and the importance of food, we explore the behavior data of 12 golden snub-nosed monkey families and then adopt tensor decomposition to dig out the potential relationship between the social class and food allocation. Fortunately, the results of tensor decomposition are consistent with the observations of animal protection experts.
