Vocalization Characteristics of the Indo‐Pacific Humpback Dolphins (Sousa chinensis) in Xiamen Bay With Insights on Regional Differences

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
The Indo‐Pacific humpback dolphin population in Xiamen Bay was divided into two geographically separated but socially associated communities inhabiting the West and East sub‐regions. Based on 3 years of boat‐based surveys, this study established baseline acoustic characteristics and investigated whether vocal patterns varied with habitat conditions ...

Generalized Perceptual Linear Prediction (gPLP) Features for Animal Vocalization Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A new feature extraction model, generalized perceptual linear prediction (gPLP), is developed to calculate a set of perceptually relevant features for digital signal analysis of animalvocalizations.

Aerodynamic Design of Buses Inspired by Beluga Whales

open access: yes, 2022
Abstract New bus designs inspired by the perfect streamlined body shapes of beluga whales are presented. The bodies are drawn using the UNIGRAPHICS program. The drag forces and the drag coefficients of variants of the new bus models are determined both experimentally and numerically.

Perceptually Motivated Wavelet Packet Transform for Bioacoustic Signal Enhancement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A significant and often unavoidable problem in bioacoustic signal processing is the presence of background noise due to an adverse recording environment. This paper proposes a new bioacoustic signal enhancement technique which can be used on a wide range
