Passive Acoustic Identification of Social Groups in the Hainan Gibbon
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Passive acoustic monitoring offers a non‐invasive means of assessing visually hard‐to‐survey wildlife species with distinctive vocalizations. We evaluated whether deep learning can identify Hainan gibbon (Nomascus hainanus) social groups from their calls.
