In the movie Hoppers, scientists “hop” human consciousness into animal-like robots to talk to other species. We asked the ...

From whale songs to lion roars, animals have evolved to stretch their voices across distances so that friends—and sometimes foes—can hear them. Each sound is coded with messages like "Come here!" ...

Animals are noisy. And their noises can travel a long way. But making sounds can be a double-edged sword: it can help them communicate, sometimes over long distances, but it can also reveal them to ...

An equine makes the low-pitched part of its whinny by vibrating its vocal cords—similar to how humans speak and sing—and the high-pitched part by whistling ...

A groundbreaking computational tool, Chatter, is revolutionizing the study of animal communication. By analyzing ...

In a paper published today in Communications Biology, auditory neuroscientists at the University of Pittsburgh describe a machine learning model that helps explain how the brain recognizes the meaning ...

DAVENPORT, Iowa (KWQC) -We know animals can’t speak and express themselves in the same way as humans … but even the smallest and quietest animals have incredible ways of communicating with each other.

Animal communication is more than simple signals. Mammals use sounds, expressions, and touch to convey emotions and social messages. Brain cells called mirror neurons help them understand feelings.

It’s not science fiction: scientists are using machine learning algorithms to decipher how animals communicate and what ...

Many people think of the ocean as a quiet and serene place: Take a dip underwater and the cacophony of the world melts away. But the ocean is quite noisy, full of whale songs and echolocation, which ...

Scientists studied guinea pigs' communication to understand how the brain recognizes communication sounds regardless of accents and surrounding noise. In a paper published today in Communications ...
