Machine learning algorithms can predict emotional valence across ungulate vocalizations
iScienceSummary: Vocalizations can vary as a function of their context of production and provide an immediate measure of an animal’s affective states. If vocal expression of emotions has been conserved throughout evolution, direct between-species comparisons ...

The ghost of ice ages past: Impact of Last Glacial Maximum landscapes on modern biodiversity
iScienceSummary: Modeled modern and Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) climate ranges for 47 genetically confirmed small Holarctic land snails documented profound landscape dynamism over the last 21,000 years. Following deglaciation, range areas tended to increase by 50%

Zoology of a non-local cross-diffusion model for two species [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 We study a non-local two species cross-interaction model with cross-diffusion. We propose a positivity preserving finite volume scheme based on the numerical method introduced in Ref. [15] and explore this new model numerically in terms of its long-time behaviours.

Zoology in the Hénon family: twin babies and Milnor's swallows [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 We study $C^{d,r}$-H\'enon-like families $(f_{a\, b})_{a\, b}$ with two parameters $(a,b)\in \mathbb R^2$. We show the existence of an open set of parameters $(a,b)\in \mathcal D$, so that a renormalization chart conjugates an iterate of $f_{a\, b}$ to a perturbation of $(x,y)\mapsto ((x^2+c_1)^2+c_2,0)$.
