In our newly published research in Science Advances, my student Ben Alessio and I propose a potential mechanism explaining how these distinctive patterns form—that could potentially be applied to ...

For years, animal behavior was explained as instinct or routine survival. New research is expanding that view.

And it turns out he was really onto something: Today, scientists studying animal patterns still find Turing’s ideas to be remarkably effective — especially when combined with other factors that ...

Your dog’s mysterious barking at 3 AM might finally make sense. Scientists are using artificial intelligence to decode animal communication patterns, and the results challenge everything you thought ...

Researchers are using large language models to decode the communication patterns of animals. Google DeepMind is building DolphinGemma, which studies dolphin sounds to understand them. The Earth ...

Groundbreaking study shows machine learning can decode emotions in seven ungulate species. A game-changer for animal welfare? Can artificial intelligence help us understand what animals feel? A ...

In 2023, researchers did something that sounds like it belongs in a Pixar movie: they decoded a humpback whale’s “hello” and ...

A figure from the research paper shows that both the model and experimental animals learned a task at a very similar pace. A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and ...
