Comparing the productive vocabularies of grey parrots (Psittacus erithacus) and young children

open access: yesAnimal Cognition
Due to their outstanding ability of vocal imitation, parrots are often kept as pets. Research has shown that they do not just repeat human words. They can use words purposefully to label objects, persons, and animals, and they can even use conversational

Teaching Mishaps With Mistakes: A Peer‐Led Seminar Using Student Case Studies to Enhance Retention

open access: yesTeaching Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Traditional teaching often emphasizes correct methods, limiting opportunities to explore analytical errors and biases. We introduce a seminar framework that integrates peer‐to‐peer teaching with intentional exposure to statistical and machine learning mishaps through flawed, student‐designed case studies.

Modelling the surprising recolonisation of an understudied aquatic mammal in a highly urbanised area: fortune favoured the smooth‐coated otter in Singapore

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Ever‐growing human activities present an active and continuing threat to many species throughout the world. Nevertheless, concerted conservation efforts in some regions have balanced these threats and allowed endangered species to recolonise former parts of their original ranges and reverse their decline.

Biochemical and structural characterization of a tail‐spike protein with depolymerase activity identified in a marine podovirus

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section D, EarlyView.
The marine tail‐spike protein Dpo31 degrades the exopolysaccharide of its host and has structural features similar to those of other members of this protein class, despite similarity not being detected at the sequence level.Marine phages are, through the infection of their bacterial hosts, key regulators of microbiome and carbon fluxes in the ocean ...

From Estimation to Discrimination: Algorithmic Bias, Predictive Uncertainty, and Anti‐Discrimination Law

open access: yesThe Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
Machine learning (ML) systems, increasingly deployed in high‐stakes decision‐making, inherently produce uncertain outputs that can lead to unlawful discrimination. This article provides the first legal analysis of how predictive uncertainty in ML systems interacts with UK anti‐discrimination law under the Equality Act 2010.

Hox Gene Variation Drives Morphological Specialization of Humpback Grouper Cromileptes altivelis

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Cromileptes altivelis exhibits a distinctive “sunken head and humpback” morphology, formed through cranial remodeling. Genetic analyses identified unique amino acid variants in Hoxa7a and Hoxa10b, with functional tests confirming their role in enhancing osteoblast activity and driving cranial remodeling.
