19:25 – “Reconstruction of ecological interaction networks” by Raphaëlle Momal-Leisenring, PhD Candidate in Applied Mathematics @AgroParisTech

Abstract: The behaviour of ecological systems mainly relies on the interactions between the species it involves. In many situations, these interactions are not observed and have to be inferred from species abundance data. Here is presented a generic statistical model for network reconstruction based on abundance data.
