Passive Acoustic Monitoring

Semi-Supervised Learning With Local Prototype Networks

Detecting animal sounds is an essential aspect of scientific research and conservation efforts. It provides valuable insights into biodiversity, species behavior, and ecosystem health. Monitoring of terrestrial and marine wildlife is a way to decrease biodiversity loss and improve species conservation. To achieve this goal passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) is Read more…

Interactive annotation of passive acoustic monitoring datasets

Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM), the recording of sounds using microphones (e.g. in biosphere reserves), is an increasingly popular method for continuous, reproducible, scalable and cost-effective monitoring of wildlife [Sugai et al., 2018]. It is widely employed in various fields, including ecology, marine biology, and conservation, to study animal behavior, biodiversity, Read more…
