Animal Sound Identifier (
Ecology Letters, 2018 AbstractAutomated audio recording offers a powerful tool for acoustic monitoring schemes of bird, bat, frog and other vocal organisms, but the lack of automated species identification methods has made it difficult to fully utilise such data. We developed Animal Sound Identifier (ASI), a MATLAB software that performs probabilistic classification of ...

Selectivity for Animal Vocalizations in the Human Auditory Cortex [PDF]
Cerebral Cortex, 2007 We aimed at testing the cortical representation of complex natural sounds within auditory cortex using human functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). To this end, we employed 2 different paradigms in the same subjects: a block-design experiment was to provide a localization of areas involved in the processing of animal vocalizations, whereas an ...

Vocal repertoire and individuality in the plains zebra (Equus quagga)
Royal Society Open ScienceAcoustic signals are vital in animal communication, and quantifying them is fundamental for understanding animal behaviour and ecology. Vocalizations can be classified into acoustically and functionally or contextually distinct categories, but ...

A Brain for Speech. Evolutionary Continuity in Primate and Human Auditory-Vocal Processing
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2018 In this review article, I propose a continuous evolution from the auditory-vocal apparatus and its mechanisms of neural control in non-human primates, to the peripheral organs and the neural control of human speech.

Optimal features for auditory categorization
Nature Communications, 2019 Vocalizations such as speech or animal calls have high variability in production. Here, the authors report that a few mid-level acoustic features provide sufficient information to generalize across this variability and classify vocalization types and ...

Human cerebral response to animal affective vocalizations [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2007 It is presently unknown whether our response to affective vocalizations is specific to those generated by humans or more universal, triggered by emotionally matched vocalizations generated by other species. Here, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging in normal participants to measure cerebral activity during auditory stimulation with ...

Developing New Metrics for the Investigation of Animal Vocalizations [PDF]
Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, 2001 Abstract An increasing body of evidence shows that non-human animal languages maybe far more complex than previously assumed. Semantic content in animal alarm calls has been found in the vocalizations of vervet monkeys, some types of ground squirrels, dwarf mongooses, chickens, and Gunnison’s prairie dogs.

Application of Transfer Entropy Measure to Characterize Environmental Sounds in Urban and Wild Parks
SensorsAnthropized green zones in urban areas and their surroundings develop complex soundscapes, characterized by the presence of multiple sound sources. This makes the interpretation of the sound environment challenging.
