We had the same problem a few years ago with employer names, I remember having a similar list with McDonald's being spelled creatively.
I wrote a few blogposts on how to solve this using fuzzy matching in R. They are a few years old but the technique should still work: r-vogg-blog.netlify.app/fuzzy
New publication from the Fichtel-Kappeler-Lab (@kirindy.bsky.social) is out in Animal Cognition:
@elifkarakoc.bsky.social, @richardvogg.bsky.social & colleagues show: competence pays – briefly

People in Göttingen who are interested in monkey research 🐒 and AI: I will be giving a talk at this year's Pint of Science 🍻. Tickets are now available, also check out all the other interesting topics!
[Small "warning": My talk will be in German but it will contain many cute monkey and lemur videos]
📢 Fully-funded PhD opportunity!
Explore the links between social & communication networks in ring-tailed lemurs!
Exciting fieldwork, interdisciplinary team, and innovative technologies! Apply now and join @primatenzentrum.bsky.social & @unigoettingen.bsky.social for this cutting-edge research!
A Perspective from the Ecker lab discusses the progress and challenges of using computer vision approaches for behavior studies of primates in natural environments.

SFB Paper Alert!
That’s teamwork: 14 SFB members across nine projects put together a perspective paper on “Computer vision for primate behavior analysis in the wild”, which was published in @naturemethods.bsky.social
www.nature.com/articles/s41...
A figure from the paper showing, on the left, three frames from a video in which two lemurs move through an area of forest; in the middle, the same three frames with bounding boxes surrounding each lemur; and on the right, a plot of the model output, showing the location and behaviour of each lemur over time
It's a 2-paper kinda week 😎
Exciting news for animal behaviour researchers! Our new paper is out now in @naturemethods.bsky.social, exploring the intersection of computer vision and animal behaviour. Congrats to lead author @richardvogg.bsky.social and everyone who worked so hard on this one
