As hypothesized, provoked calls were longer in duration, had wider bandwidths, and an increased number of harmonics than spontaneous calls (Fig. 5B D).
It has been previously hypothesized that call structure correlates with social valence in birds and mammals [ 32], but to our knowledge, this is the first study showing how songbirds use formant dispersion to encode social valence.
We appear to be inching toward a concept advanced in 2004 by the writer Bruce Sterling, who hypothesized objects he called "spimes" — embedded with technologies that carry, collect and communicate data — becoming "the protagonist of a documented process".
On the basis of a surviving scrap of print, Plato hypothesizes a novelist called Charles Dickens, who wrote a work of light fiction called "On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection".
They hypothesized that distress calls might compound the effects of light by acoustically distracting bats.
The third experiment would search for a hypothesized form of radioactivity called neutrinoless double beta decay.
In 1960 Miller, Eugene Galanter, and Karl Pribram proposed that stimulus-response (an isolated behavioral sequence used to assist research) be replaced by a different hypothesized behavioral sequence, which they called the TOTE (test, operate, test, exit).
A process called baryogenesis was hypothesized to account for the asymmetry.
Emory University professor Scott Lilienfeld and graduate student Ashley Watts hypothesized that a personality type called "grandiose narcissism" might explain both the positive and negative aspects of the more enigmatic U.S. presidents.
More recently, however, the existence of a status intermedius between widespread metastatic disease and local, organ-confined disease has been hypothesized; this state has been called oligometastatic disease.
