Bioacoustics Data Analysis – A Taxonomy, Survey and Open Challenges
Biodiversity monitoring has become a critical task for governments and ecological research agencies for reducing significant loss of animal species. Existing monitoring methods are time-intensive and techniques such as tagging are also invasive and may ...

A Framework for Bioacoustic Vocalization Analysis Using Hidden Markov Models [PDF]
Using Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) as a recognition framework for automatic classification of animal vocalizations has a number of benefits, including the ability to handle duration variability through nonlinear time alignment, the ability to incorporate ...

Robust rhythm reporting will advance ecological and evolutionary research
Rhythmicity in the millisecond to second range is a fundamental building block of communication and coordinated movement. But how widespread are rhythmic capacities across species, and how did they evolve under different environmental pressures ...

Can harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) discriminate familiar conspecific calls after long periods of separation? [PDF]
The ability to discriminate between familiar and unfamiliar calls may play a key role in pinnipeds’ communication and survival, as in the case of mother-pup interactions. Vocal discrimination abilities have been suggested to be more developed in pinniped
