DISCO is a deep learning tool for segmenting acoustic signals with confidence estimates, demonstrated on beetle courtships and whale songs.

This paper presents the de novo genome and transcriptome of the Japanese rhinoceros beetle Trypoxylus dichotomus, providing comprehensive genomic resources for evolutionary and functional studies.
