Sparse ensemble neural code for a complete vocal repertoire [PDF]
Cell Reports, 2023 Summary: The categorization of animal vocalizations into distinct behaviorally relevant groups for communication is an essential operation that must be performed by the auditory system.

An updated vocal repertoire of wild adult bonobos (Pan paniscus). [PDF]
PLoS ONEResearch over the last 20 years has shed important light on the vocal behaviour of our closest living relatives, bonobos and chimpanzees, but mostly relies on qualitative vocal repertoires, for which quantitative validations are absent.

Building Complexity From Simplicity: A Songbird's Vocal Repertoire Varies Among Populations Despite Similarity of Syllables [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionVocal communication plays a critical role in understanding animal behavior, evolution, and cognition. We developed an automated system combining audio signal processing and machine learning (supervised and unsupervised) to characterize the vocal ...

Avian Research, 2023 Signals within animals’ vocal communication are considered functional referential and context-specific. Even in the absence of the context, receivers are expected to acquire the information of calls and respond specifically.

The vocal repertoire of adult and neonate giant otters (Pteronura brasiliensis). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Animals use vocalizations to exchange information about external events, their own physical or motivational state, or about individuality and social affiliation.

Contextual flexibility in the vocal repertoire of an Amazon parrot. [PDF]
Front Zool, 2016 Understanding the role of avian vocal communication in social organisation requires knowledge of the vocal repertoire used to convey information. Parrots use acoustic signals in a variety of social contexts, but no studies have evaluated cross-functional use of acoustic signals by parrots, or whether these conform to signal design rules for different ...

The Vocal Repertoire of Pale Spear-Nosed Bats in a Social Roosting Context
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Commonly known for their ability to echolocate, bats also use a wide variety of social vocalizations to communicate with one another. However, the full vocal repertoires of relatively few bat species have been studied thus far. The present study examined

Vocal repertoire and individuality in the plains zebra (Equus quagga). [PDF]
R Soc Open SciAcoustic signals are vital in animal communication, and quantifying them is fundamental for understanding animal behaviour and ecology. Vocalizations can be classified into acoustically and functionally or contextually distinct categories, but establishing these categories can be challenging.

The vocal repertoire of the African Penguin (Spheniscus demersus): structure and function of calls. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The African Penguin (Spheniscus demersus) is a highly social and vocal seabird. However, currently available descriptions of the vocal repertoire of African Penguin are mostly limited to basic descriptions of calls. Here we provide, for the first time, a
