While the animal bioacoustics community at large is collecting huge amounts of acoustic data at an unprecedented pace, processing these data is problematic. Currently in bioacoustics, there is no effective way to achieve high performance…
This paper presents a new software model designed for distributed sonic signal detection runtime using machine learning algorithms called DeLMA. A new algorithm--Acoustic Data-mining Accelerator (ADA)--is also presented. ADA is a robust yet…
A challenge in marine bioacoustic analysis is the detection of animal signals, like calls, whistles and clicks, for behavioral studies. Manual labeling is too time-consuming to process sufficient data to get reasonable results. Thus, an…
The automatic classification of animal sounds presents an enduring challenge in bioacoustics, owing to the diverse statistical properties of sound signals, variations in recording equipment, and prevalent low Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)…
The deep learning revolution is touching all scientific disciplines and corners of our lives as a means of harnessing the power of big data. Marine ecology is no exception. These new methods provide analysis of data from sensors, cameras,…
Animal vocalisations and natural soundscapes are fascinating objects of study, and contain valuable evidence about animal behaviours, populations and ecosystems. They are studied in bioacoustics and ecoacoustics, with signal processing and…
Effective conservation of maritime environments and wildlife management of endangered species require the implementation of efficient, accurate and scalable solutions for environmental monitoring. Ecoacoustics offers the advantages of…
Direct localization (DLOC) methods, which use the observed data to localize a source at an unknown position in a one-step procedure, generally outperform their indirect two-step counterparts (e.g., using time-difference of arrivals).…
Research into automated systems for detecting and classifying marine mammals in acoustic recordings is expanding internationally due to the necessity to analyze large collections of data for conservation purposes. In this work, we present a…
Underwater acoustic target detection in remote marine sensing operations is challenging due to complex sound wave propagation. Despite the availability of reliable sonar systems, target recognition remains a difficult problem. Various…

Traditional simulations on High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems typically involve modeling very large domains and/or very complex equations. HPC systems allow running large models, but limits in performance increase that have become…
For centuries researchers have used sound to monitor and study wildlife. Traditionally, conservationists have identified species by ear; however, it is now common to deploy audio recording technology to monitor animal and ecosystem sounds.…
Marine scientists use remote underwater video recording to survey fish species in their natural habitats. This helps them understand and predict how fish respond to climate change, habitat degradation, and fishing pressure. This information…
The current methodology in tackling Acoustic Scene Classification (ASC) task can be described in two steps, preprocessing of the audio waveform into log-mel spectrogram and then using it as the input representation for Convolutional Neural…
The spatial semantic segmentation task focuses on separating and classifying sound objects from multichannel signals. To achieve two different goals, conventional methods fine-tune a large classification model cascaded with the separation…
Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) has shown great promise in helping ecologists understand the health of animal populations and ecosystems. However, extracting insights from millions of hours of audio recordings requires the development of…
As the technology is advancing, audio recognition in machine learning is improved as well. Research in audio recognition has traditionally focused on speech. Living creatures (especially the small ones) are part of the whole ecosystem,…
