A General Hidden State Random Walk Model for Animal Movement

In this paper, we propose a general hidden state random walk model to describe the movement of an animal that takes into account movement taxis with respect to features of the environment. A circular-linear process models the direction and distance between two consecutive localizations of the animal...
