The modelling of avian visual perception predicts behavioural rejection responses to foreign egg colours
How do birds tell the colours of their own and foreign eggs apart? We demonstrate that perceptual modelling of avian visual discrimination can predict behavioural rejection responses to foreign eggs in the nest of wild birds. We use a photoreceptor noise-limited colour opponent model of visual perception to evaluate its accuracy as a predictor of behavioural rates of experimental egg discrimination in the song thrush Turdus philomelos. The visual modelling of experimental and natural eggshell colours suggests that photon capture from the ultraviolet and short wavelength-sensitive cones elicits egg rejection decisions in song thrushes, while inter-clutch variation of egg coloration provides sufficient contrasts for detecting conspecific parasitism in this species. Biologically realistic sensory models provide an important tool for relating variability of behavioural responses to perceived phenotypic variation.Phillip Cassey, Marcel Honza, Tomas Grim, and Mark E Haube

Figure 1. Values for individual eggs on the two most important PC variables (according to the random forest model), grouped by cuckoo female ID based on the genetic assignment. PCA2 pattern variable indicates egg skew and PC2 spectra variable indicates blueness/greenness of eggs (for details, see Table 2).Published as part of Šulc, Michal, Hughes, Anna E, Troscianko, Jolyon, Štětková, Gabriela, Procházka, Petr, Požgayová, Milica, Piálek, Lubomír, Piálková, Radka, Brlík, Vojtěch & Honza, Marcel, 2022, Automatic identification of bird females using egg phenotype, pp. 33-44 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 195 (1) on page 38, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlab051, http://zenodo.org/record/653063

CAPRI versus AGLINK-COSIMO: Two partial equilibrium models - Two baseline approaches
The agricultural modelling world has generated several models aiming at the analysis of the response of the sector to certain changes in exogenous mainly policy variables. Among those, the CAPRI modelling system developed by a consortium centred on the University of Bonn and the AGLINK-COSIMO model, a joint product of the OECD and the FAO, are well known and accepted as comprehensive tools. This analysis focuses on a qualitative comparison of both models and particularly on the process of setting up the baseline. The baseline is a medium-term projection of agricultural markets reflecting current policies and those already decided upon. This projection in turn serves as the base for comparisons when analyzing scenarios. It is shown that CAPRI uses generic and automatic procedures whenever possible for conducting the database and the baseline, while AGLINK-COSIMO puts more emphasis on expert knowledge in this process. Both approaches are shown to have certain advantages while the conclusion that a combination of them would potentially improve both models will be drawn from this analysis.CAPRI, AGLINK-COSIMO, Baseline process, Agricultural and Food Policy,
