Parallels in the sequential organization of birdsong and human speech [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Human speech possesses a rich hierarchical structure that allows for meaning to be altered by words spaced far apart in time. Conversely, the sequential structure of nonhuman communication is thought to follow non-hierarchical Markovian dynamics ...

Global birdsong embeddings enable superior transfer learning for bioacoustic classification [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
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 advent of deep

NIPS4Bplus: a richly annotated birdsong audio dataset [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ Computer Science, 2019
Recent advances in birdsong detection and classification have approached a limit due to the lack of fully annotated recordings. In this paper, we present NIPS4Bplus, the first richly annotated birdsong audio dataset, that is comprised of recordings ...

Subjective Preferences for Birdsong and Insect Song in Equal Sound Pressure Level

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Birdsong is used as a sound signal for visually impaired people in train stations in Japan. However, such sound signals were reportedly difficult to be localized by over 40% of visually impaired people.

Bird population declines and species turnover are changing the acoustic properties of spring soundscapes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Birdsong has long connected humans to nature. Historical reconstructions using bird monitoring and song recordings collected by citizen scientists reveal that the soundscape of birdsong in North America and Europe is both quieter and less varied ...

Deep learning bird song recognition based on MFF-ScSEnet

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Bird diversity plays an important role in ecological balance, and bird song identification is of great practical significance. The spectrum generated by feature extraction shows good performance on classification.

A hierarchical neuronal model for generation and online recognition of birdsongs. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2011
The neuronal system underlying learning, generation and recognition of song in birds is one of the best-studied systems in the neurosciences. Here, we use these experimental findings to derive a neurobiologically plausible, dynamic, hierarchical model of

Sexual selection for both diversity and repetition in birdsong

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
From fiddler crabs to humans, animals perform repetitive displays showing neuromotor skill and vigour. Consistent repetition of identical notes (vocal consistency) facilitates the assessment of neuromotor skills and is important in communication in birds.

Birdsongs alleviate anxiety and paranoia in healthy participants

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The present study investigated the effect of urban (traffic noise) vs. natural (birdsongs) soundscapes on mood, state paranoia, and cognitive performance, hypothesizing that birdsongs lead to significant improvements in these outcomes. An additional goal
