Sound power levels or so-called source levels are essential quantities when it comes to evaluating the active space of bird species, both in the study of animal communication and when designing bioacoustic monitoring schemes. However,…
We evaluated the effectiveness of an automated bird sound identification system in a situation that emulates a realistic, typical application. We trained classification algorithms on a crowd-sourced collection of bird audio recording data…
Biodiversity monitoring using audio recordings is achievable at a truly global scale via large-scale deployment of inexpensive, unattended recording stations or by large-scale crowdsourcing using recording and species recognition on mobile…
Ecological and conservation studies monitoring bird communities typically rely on species classification based on bird vocalizations. Historically, this has been based on expert volunteers going into the field and making lists of the bird…
The ability to use inexpensive, noninvasive sensors to accurately classify flying insects would have significant implications for entomological research, and allow for the development of many useful applications in vector control for both…
Autonomous recording units and passive acoustic monitoring present minimally intrusive methods of collecting bioacoustics data. Combining this data with species agnostic bird activity detection systems enables the monitoring of activity…
We introduce a novel approach to studying animal behaviour and the context in which it occurs, through the use of microphone backpacks carried on the backs of individual free-flying birds. These sensors are increasingly used by animal…
Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) studies generate thousands of hours of audio, which may be used to monitor specific animal populations, conduct broad biodiversity surveys, detect threats such as poachers, and more. Machine learning…
Recognition and interpretation of bird vocalizations are pivotal in ornithological research and ecological conservation efforts due to their significance in understanding avian behaviour, performing habitat assessment and judging ecological…
Automated bioacoustic analysis aids understanding and protection of both marine and terrestrial animals and their habitats across extensive spatiotemporal scales, and typically involves analyzing vast collections of acoustic data. With the…
Insects are an integral part of our ecosystem. These often small and evasive animals have a big impact on their surroundings, providing a large part of the present biodiversity and pollination duties, forming the foundation of the food…
In this paper we present our researches regarding automat parsing of audio recordings. These recordings are obtained from children with dyslalia and are necessary for an accurate identification of speech problems. We develop the ADM…
In this work, we consider applying machine learning to the analysis and compression of audio signals in the context of monitoring elephants in sub-Saharan Africa. Earth's biodiversity is increasingly under threat by sources of anthropogenic…
Global change is predicted to induce shifts in anuran acoustic behavior, which can be studied through passive acoustic monitoring (PAM). Understanding changes in calling behavior requires the identification of anuran species, which is…
In this paper, we present an acoustic database, designed to drive and support research on voiced enabled technologies inside moving vehicles. The recording process involves (i) recordings of acoustic impulse responses, acquired under static…
Identification of bird species from audio records is one of the challenging tasks due to the existence of multiple species in the same recording, noise in the background, and long-term recording. Besides, choosing a proper acoustic feature…
Many animals emit vocal sounds which, independently from the sounds' function, embed some individually-distinctive signature. Thus the automatic recognition of individuals by sound is a potentially powerful tool for zoology and ecology…
