Predictive power of daily viscacha and vicuña sightings on Simons Array site work results [IMA]

http://arxiv.org/abs/2304.00351


We studied the predictive power of daily animal sightings on site work outcomes at the Polarbear and Simons Array experiment site in the Atacama Desert, Chile. Specifically, we observed the number of viscacha and vicuna sightings during a two-month period, totaling 31 observation days, and analyzed their relationship with site work outcomes using machine learning techniques. Our results show that there was no significant correlation between the number of animal sightings and site work outcomes. The feather importance score for viscacha and vicuna were 0.71068 and 0.057762, respectively. Future research may include expanding the analysis to include other animal species, investigating the impact of human activity on site work outcomes, and exploring alternative machine learning models or statistical techniques.
