π I'm an evolutionary behavioral ecologist and software developer.
π¬ Research: I study the ecology and evolution of animal behavior. Learn more on my personal website.
π οΈ Tools: I develop R packages to help the scientific community analyze biological (mostly behavioral) data.
π Reproducibility: I use GitHub to share the complete code and data from my research, ensuring transparency and reproducibility.
These are the packages I maintain:
| Package | What it does |
|---|---|
| baRulho | Aims to facilitate the implementation of (animal) sound transmission experiments from playback design to degradation quantification |
| brmsish | Custom manipulation of brms bayesian models that I like (not sure if this should be a true package!) |
| dynaSpec | Create dynamic visualizations of sound (spectrogram movies) |
| NatureSounds | Examples of natural acoustic data |
| ohun | Optimize sound event detection |
| Rraven | Connecting R and Raven sound analysis software |
| PhenotypeSpace | Quantify multivariate phenotypic spaces (under development) |
| suwo | Access nature media repositories |
| warbleR | Quantify the structure of animal acoustic signals |
