No need to shout: Effect of signal loudness on sibling communication in barn owls

Hervé Lissek, Xavier Falourd, Patrick Marmaroli

In animal communication, signal loudness is often ignored and seldom measured. We used a playback experiment to examine the role of vocal loudness (i.e., sound pressure level) in sibling to sibling communication of nestling barn owls Tyto alba. In this spe ...

Tunable insertion of multiple lines into a Kerr frequency comb using electro-optical modulators

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Yan Yan

We experimentally insert a flexible number of electro-optical (EO) comb lines into a Kerr frequency comb via EO modulation and demonstrate the use of combined Kerr and EO combs as light sources in coherent communications. The number of EO lines inserted in ...

Detection of Optogenetic Stimulation in Somatosensory Cortex by Non-Human Primates - Towards Artificial Tactile Sensation

Fabien Bertrand Paul Wagner, David Allenson Borton

Neuroprosthesis research aims to enable communication between the brain and external assistive devices while restoring lost functionality such as occurs from stroke, spinal cord injury or neurodegenerative diseases. In future closed-loop sensorimotor prost ...

An Event-Based Architecture to Manage Virtual Human Non-Verbal Communication in 3D Chatting Environment

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Junghyun Ahn, Stéphane Gobron, Quentin Silvestre

Non-verbal communication (NVC) makes up about two-thirds of all communication between two people or between one speaker and a group of listeners. However, this fundamental aspect of communicating is mostly omitted in 3D social forums or virtual world orien ...

An Interdisciplinary VR-Architecture for 3D Chatting with Non-verbal Communication

Daniel Thalmann, Stéphane Gobron, Junghyun Ahn, Quentin Silvestre

The communication between avatar and agent has already been treated from different but specialized perspectives. In contrast, this paper gives a balanced view of every key architectural aspect: from text analysis to computer graphics, the chatting system a ...

Computer Code as a Medium for Human Communication: Are Programming Languages Improving?

Gilles Dubochet

Programming languages are not only useful to command computers, they also increasingly are a medium for human communication. I will use the framework of distributed cognition to discuss how knowledge is shared in a team of programmers and to show that comp ...

Impact of Vehicular Communications Security on Transportation Safety

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos

Transportation safety, one of the main driving forces of the development of vehicular communication (VC) systems, relies on high-rate safety messaging (beaconing). At the same time, there is consensus among authorities, industry, and academia on the need t ...
