Improved marine debris detection in satellite imagery with automatic refinement of coarse hand annotations

Devis Tuia, Marc Conrad Russwurm, Elif Dilge Gül

Plastic litter is a major environmental hazard that endangers human, animal, and plant health on the planet. A substantial portion of plastic pollutants is washed from rivers and beaches into the oceans and aggregates at the surface as marine debris before ...

Large-scale detection of marine debris in coastal areas with Sentinel-2

Devis Tuia, Marc Conrad Russwurm, Sushen Jilla Venkatesa

Detecting and quantifying marine pollution and macroplastics is an increasingly pressing ecological issue that directly impacts ecology and human health. Here, remote sensing can provide reliable estimates of plastic pollution by regularly monitoring and d ...

Evidence that Pacific tuna mercury levels are driven by marine methylmercury production and anthropogenic inputs

Hélène Paule Angot

Pacific Ocean tuna is among the most-consumed seafood products but contains relatively high levels of the neurotoxin methylmercury. Limited observations suggest tuna mercury levels vary in space and time, yet the drivers are not well understood. Here, we m ...

Detecting animals in African Savanna with UAVs and the crowds

Devis Tuia, Stéphane Joost

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) offer new opportunities for wildlife monitoring, with several advantages over traditional field-based methods. They have readily been used to count birds, marine mammals and large herbivores in different environments, tasks ...

Embryonic timing, axial stem cells, chromatin dynamics, and the Hox clock

Denis Duboule

Collinear regulation of Hox genes in space and time has been an outstanding question ever since the initial work of Ed Lewis in 1978. Here we discuss recent advances in our understanding of this phenomenon in relation to novel concepts associated with larg ...

Kinematic and gait similarities between crawling human infants and other quadruped mammals

Auke Ijspeert, Ludovic Righetti

Crawling on hands and knees is an early pattern of human infant locomotion, which offers an interesting way of studying quadrupedalism in one of its simplest form. We investigate how crawling human infants compare to other quadruped mammals, especially pri ...

Use of waste products for detecting amyloidogenic proteinaceous material in living mammals

Theo Lasser, Patrick Fraering, Tristan Bolmont, Taoufiq Harach

Method for detecting amyloidogenic proteinaceous material induced by a proteopathy, for instance Alzheimer's disease, characterized by the fact that said amyloidogenic proteinaceous material is detected in a mammal waste product, such as feces. ...

A scalable electro-magnetic communication system for underwater swarms

Felix Stephan Schill

Scalable, reliable underwater communication is still a major challenge limiting the deployment of large-scale cooperative underwater systems, such as swarms of AUVs, which generally rely on frequent updates from surrounding units for control and mission ob ...

Kinematic and EMG Determinants in Quadrupedal Locomotion of a Non-Human Primate (Rhesus)

Grégoire Courtine

We hypothesized that the activation patterns of flexor and extensor muscles and the resulting kinematics of the forelimbs and hindlimbs during locomotion in the Rhesus would have unique characteristics relative to other quadrupedal mammals. Adaptations of ...
