Characterization of Efficacy and Animal Safety across Four Caprine Disbudding Methodologies
Animals, 2021 There is a strong industry demand for technically simple and highly efficacious alternatives to heat cautery disbudding in goat kids that can be performed as a stand-alone procedure without adjunct anesthesia, and that result in improved overall welfare ...

Body size and vocalization in primates and carnivores
Scientific Reports, 2017 A fundamental assumption in bioacoustics is that large animals tend to produce vocalizations with lower frequencies than small animals. This inverse relationship between body size and vocalization frequencies is widely considered to be foundational in ...

Modeling Animal Vocalizations through Synthesizers
CoRR, 2022 Modeling real-world sound is a fundamental problem in the creative use of machine learning and many other fields, including human speech processing and bioacoustics. Transformer-based generative models and some prior work (e.g., DDSP) are known to produce realistic sound, although they have limited control and are hard to interpret.

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022 Ultrasonic vocalization (USV) is one of the measurable behavioral parameters of sociosexual interactions in rats. To precisely and accurately describe the neurobehavioral properties of USV and the potentially related specific emotional responsiveness of ...

Localize Animal Sound Events Reliably (LASER): A New Software for Sound Localization in Zoos
Journal of Zoological and Botanical Gardens, 2021 Locating a vocalizing animal can be useful in many fields of bioacoustics and behavioral research, and is often done in the wild, covering large areas. In zoos, however, the application of this method becomes particularly difficult, because, on the one ...

Combinatoriality in the vocal systems of nonhuman animals [PDF]
WIREs Cognitive Science, 2019 A key challenge in the field of human language evolution is the identification of the selective conditions that gave rise to language's generative nature. Comparative data on nonhuman animals provides a powerful tool to investigate similarities and differences among nonhuman and human communication systems and to reveal convergent evolutionary ...

Animation Synthesis Triggered by Vocal Mimics [PDF]
Motion, Interaction and Games, 2019 We propose a method leveraging the naturally time-related expressivity of our voice to control an animation composed of a set of short events. The user records itself mimicking onomatopoeia sounds such as "Tick", "Pop", or "Chhh" which are associated with specific animation events.
