Animal Vocalization Analysis and Synthesis

open access: yes, 2014
This Master’s thesis focuses on the unexplored domain of animal vocalizations. In the present work Lemur (madagascarian mammal) vocalizations are studied and analysed in order to create a system that can process and train datasets and posteriorly synthesize vocalizations. To achieve the goal the technique of Hidden Markov Models based synthesis is used

Animal vocalization in zones of contact and hybridization

open access: yesAnimal Taxonomy and Ecology
AbstractContact zones are geographic areas where the ranges of closely related taxa (species or subspecies) come into proximity or overlap in a partial way. In contact zones, hybridization often occurs, a process in which individuals that differ in phenotypic or genetic traits interbreed and produce offspring with mixed characteristics.
