Quantifying song behavior in a free‐living, light‐weight, mobile bird using accelerometers
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 To acquire a fundamental understanding of animal communication, continuous observations in a natural setting and at an individual level are required. Whereas the use of animal‐borne acoustic recorders in vocal studies remains challenging, light‐weight ...

Automated detection and classification of birdsong: An ensemble approach
Ecological Indicators, 2020 Abstract The avian dawn chorus presents a challenging opportunity to test autonomous recording units (ARUs) and associated recogniser software in the types of complex acoustic environments frequently encountered in the natural world. To date, extracting information from acoustic surveys using readily-available signal recognition tools (‘recognisers’)

Enhancing the dissimilarity-based classification of birdsong recordings
Ecological Informatics, 2016 Abstract Classification of birdsong recordings can be naturally formulated as a multiple instance problem, where bags of instances are represented by either features or dissimilarities. In bioacoustics, bags typically correspond to regions of interest in spectrograms, which are detected after a segmentation stage of the audio recordings.

Multiple Signaling Functions Of Song In A Polymorphic Species With Alternative Reproductive Strategies [PDF]
, 2017 Vocal traits can be sexually selected to reflect male quality, but may also evolve to serve additional signaling functions. We used a long-term dataset to examine the signaling potential of song in dimorphic white-throated sparrows (Zonotrichia ...

A computer vision approach to classification of birds in flight from video sequences [PDF]
, 2015 Bird populations are an important bio-indicator; so collecting reliable data is useful for ecologists helping conserve and manage fragile ecosystems. However, existing manual monitoring methods are labour-intensive, time-consuming, and error-prone.

Fast and robust learning by reinforcement signals: explorations in the insect brain [PDF]
, 2009 We propose a model for pattern recognition in the insect brain. Departing from a well-known body of knowledge about the insect brain, we investigate which of the potentially present features may be useful to learn input patterns rapidly and in a stable ...
