Building models that can be rapidly adapted to novel tasks using only a handful of annotated
examples is an open challenge for multimodal machine learning research. We introduce …

We present a general-purpose framework for image modelling and vision tasks based on
probabilistic frame prediction. Our approach unifies a broad range of tasks, from image …

This report introduces a new family of multimodal models, Gemini, that exhibit remarkable
capabilities across image, audio, video, and text understanding. The Gemini family consists of …

A common vision from science fiction is that robots will one day inhabit our physical spaces,
sense the world as we do, assist our physical labours, and communicate with us through …

Experience and reasoning occur across multiple temporal scales: milliseconds, seconds,
hours or days. The vast majority of computer vision research, however, still focuses on …

Females should prefer to be fertilized by males that increase the genetic quality of their
offspring. In vertebrates, genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) play a key role in …

Sexually selected traits are often hypothesized to signal male condition or quality, though
empirical evidence is mixed, and a number of alternative models of sexual selection do not …

Flying foxes of the genus Pteropus are predominantly island taxa, with high levels of endemism,
and face high risks of extinction. Their ecological and economic importance in island …

Cost, time, and expertise constraints limit traditional observation-based comprehensive
biodiversity assessment. Therefore, surrogate focal taxa representative of wider biodiversity are …

A recent study reported the incidence of intraspecific brood parasitism (IBP) in the blue tit,
based on differences in pigmentation between eggs within clutches and the appearance of …
