A scalable transfer learning workflow for extracting biological and behavioural insights from forest elephant vocalizations

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Animal vocalizations encode rich biological information, making bioacoustic analysis a valuable non‐invasive tool for assessing animal welfare and population dynamics. However, traditional methods relying on manual feature selection are labour‐intensive, subjective and lack scalability for the large datasets generated by passive acoustic monitoring ...

HOWLish: a CNN for automated wolf howl detection

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Automated detection of wolf howls presents a great opportunity for large‐scale passive acoustic monitoring of wolf populations. Here we present HOWLish, a CNN trained for automated wolf howl detection, based on thousands of hours of soundscapes recorded in the wild.

Development and implementation of an adaptive digital beamforming network for satellite communication systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
The use of adaptive digital beamforming techniques has, until recently, been largely restricted to high performance military radar systems. Recent advances in digital technology, however, have enabled the design of single chip digital beamforming ...

Sustainable Schools: Changing Society Towards Sustainability

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A change in mindset has taken place in educational institutions, characterised by a growing awareness of sustainability and environmental aspects. Inspired by the UNESCO Global Action Programme, various ministries have allowed to be certified as a School of Sustainability at different levels, albeit on a voluntary basis and without substantial

Beggars as Rational Choosers

open access: yesSouthern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT American municipalities increasingly regulate panhandling. That regulation is controversial. The determinants of panhandling activeness are unknown, and it is doubted whether panhandling activity responds rationally to incentives. To shed light on these issues, we collect data on hundreds of panhandlers and the passersby they solicit at ...

Robust Joint Alignment of Multiple Versions of a Piece of Music

open access: yes, 2014
Large music content libraries often comprise multiple versions of a piece of music. To establish a link between different versions, automatic music alignment methods map each position in one version to a corresponding position in another version. Due to the leeway in interpreting a piece, any two versions can differ significantly, for example, in terms

Erving Goffman at 100: A Chameleon Seen as a Rorschach Test within a Kaleidoscope

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
The 100th anniversary of Erving Goffman's birth was in 2022. Drawing on his work, the Goffman archives, the secondary literature, and personal experiences with him and those in his university of Chicago cohort, I reflect on some implications of his work and life, and the inseparable issues of understanding society.

Adaptation of speaker-specific bases in non-negative matrix factorization for single channel speech-music separation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This paper introduces a speaker adaptation algorithm for nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) models. The proposed adaptation algorithm is a combination of Bayesian and subspace model adaptation. The adapted model is used to separate speech signal from

Robust steganographic framework for securing sensitive healthcare data of telemedicine using convolutional neural network

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Data is the key element that runs the modern society. Large amounts of data are being released day by day as a result of many activities. The digital data is transferred through the Internet which may be vulnerable to attacks while transmitting. Especially, the medical data is observed to be of at most importance.
