Self-Supervised Visual Learning by Variable Playback Speeds Prediction of a Video

IEEE Access, 2021
We propose a self-supervised visual learning method by predicting the variable playback speeds of a video. Without semantic labels, we learn the spatio-temporal visual representation of the video by leveraging the variations in the visual appearance ...

Utterance evolution: the road to generative, combinatorial communicators

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Language has long been considered uniquely complex in the animal kingdom; however, animal research over the last decade has begun to challenge some long‐standing premises about exactly which language capacities are uniquely human. The task of resolving why and how complex communication systems evolve, particularly human language, has ...

As time passes by: Observed motion-speed and psychological time during video playback. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Research shows that psychological time (i.e., the subjective experience and assessment of the passage of time) is malleable and that the central nervous system re-calibrates temporal information in accordance with situational factors so that ...

Microclimate mediates the strength and direction of avian biotic interactions

Ecography, EarlyView.
Theory predicts that the strength and direction of species interactions can shift from being competitive in benign environments toward being facilitative in stressful environments. However, the environmental context dependency of species interactions has rarely been tested in animal communities.

Learning from Playbacks: Testing the Communicative Function of Snort and Pant Calls in the Southern White Rhinoceros

Journal of Zoological and Botanical Gardens
In southern white rhinoceroses (Ceratotherium simum simum), pant calls are well-studied contact vocalisations, whereas the function of frequently emitted snorts remains unclear.

Materials and Music: Selective Imperfection as a Generative Framework for Analysis, Creativity and Discovery

Interdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Vibrations in matter, from spider webs to molecules, water to flames, share a grammar with music. We propose that creativity emerges when constraints force expansion beyond existing possibilities. Selective imperfection restores balance, enabling invention.

Assessing pediatric gastroenterologists' use of artificial intelligence in clinical and professional tasks

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Artificial intelligence (AI) has demonstrated potential to enhance clinical efficiency. However, its real‐world adoption among pediatric gastroenterologists (GIs) remains poorly characterized. The primary objective of this study was to assess how pediatric GIs are currently utilizing AI. Secondary objectives included estimating time

Manufacturing Nostalgia in the Digital Age: A Foreverism Perspective

Psychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many scholars argue that we are experiencing the era of “retro”—nostalgia‐driven marketing and consumption phenomena reinforced by digital technologies. However, existing research lacks a critical analysis of nostalgia in contemporary markets and of how digital content, tools, and environments transform retro consumption experiences and alter ...
