Food web reconstruction through phylogenetic transfer of low-rank network representation

11.07.2023
In this paper in Methods in Ecology and Evolution, researchers present a methodological framework that uses graph embedding and transfer learning to put together a predicted list of trophic interactions of a species pool for which their interactions are unknown and assemble a metaweb for Canadian mammals derived from interactions in the European food web. Congratulations to Tanya Strydom (Université de Montréal) as winner of the Robert May Prize 2022 for this paper. The Robert May prize is awarded annually to the best paper submitted by an early career author at the start of their research career. This CIEE working group is organized by Laura Pollock (McGill University) and Timothée Poisot (Université de Montréal).
