Conservationists are increasingly using autonomous acoustic recorders to determine the
presence/absence and the abundance of bird species. Unlike humans, these recorders can …

Automatic identification of bird species by their vocalization is studied in this paper. Bird
sounds are represented with two different parametric representations:(i) the mel-cepstrum …

An automatic frog sound identification system is developed in this work to provide the public
to easily consult online. The sound samples are first properly segmented into syllables. Then …

As bats are important biodiversity indicators, monitoring their populations is becoming
increasingly important to understand the impacts of global change. Bats leak information …

A new hybrid method for automated frog sound identification, using spectral centroid,
Shannon entropy and Rényi entropy is proposed. The advantage of using entropy based …

The work presented in this paper focuses on the use of acoustic systems for passive
acoustic monitoring of ocean vitality for fish populations. Specifically, it focuses on the use of …

Traditional birdsong recognition approaches used acoustic features based on the acoustic
model of speech production or the perceptual model of the human auditory system to identify …

The use of bioacoustics to identify animal species has huge potential for use in biology and
conservation research. Fields that could be greatly enhanced by the use of bioacoustical …

With the declines in abundance and changing distribution of white-nose syndrome–affected
bat species, increased reliance on acoustic monitoring is now the new “normal.” As such, the …

Speech processing includes the various techniques such as speech coding, speech
synthesis, speech recognition and speaker recognition. In the area of digital signal …
