Ultrasonic predator-prey interactions in water– convergent evolution with insects and bats in air?
Toothed whales and bats have independently evolved biosonar systems to navigate and locate and catch prey. Such active sensing allows them to operate in darkness, but with the potential cost of warning prey by the emission of intense ultrasonic signals ...

Numerical Study of the Effect of Furrows on Biosonar Beamforming in Aselliscus Stoliczkanus Bat
The Aselliscus Stoliczkanus bat, studied here, has intricately shaped structures surrounding the nostrils. These structures are hypothesised to have influence on animals’ acoustic radiation patterns.

Intensity and directionality of bat echolocation signals
The paper reviews current knowledge of intensity and directionality of bat echolocation signals. Recent studies have revealed that echolocating bats can be much louder than previously believed. Bats previously dubbed whispering can emit calls with source

Acoustics in water: synergies with marine biology
This paper presents some of the bioacoustics related analysis that was performed on the ANTARES data, focussing on the year 2014. The data was processed for sperm whale, dolphin and shipping presence and grouped by hour of the day.

Determining biosonar images using sparse representations
: Echolocating bats are thought to be able to create an image of their environment by emitting pulses and analyzing the reflected echoes. In this paper, the theory of sparse representations and its more recent further development into compressed sensing ...

Delayed response and biosonar perception explain movement coordination in trawling bats.
Animal coordinated movement interactions are commonly explained by assuming unspecified social forces of attraction, repulsion and alignment with parameters drawn from observed movement data.

TIME-RESOLVED SPECTRUM KERNEL FOR BIOSONAR TARGET CLASSIFICATION
We consider the problem of biosonar landmark classification as an example of random and non-stationary signal classification in which finding robust and structure independent features for classification is not trivial.
