arXiv:2607. 06063v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Eco-acoustic monitoring generates vast volumes of audio data, making active learning a promising approach for reducing annotation effort while efficiently training reliable biodiversity classifiers.
arXiv:2606. 03821v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Active learning is now standard practice in labeling ecological data, enabling ecologists to quickly process large volumes of field data to understand and monitor natural environments.
arXiv:2607. 14072v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bioacoustic foundation models rely on large-scale citizen science platforms like Xeno-Canto for geographically and ecologically diverse data.
arXiv:2606. 13236v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Passive acoustic monitoring holds great promise for ecological inference, yet existing automated tools are typically narrowly trained and non-transferable.
Active learning is now standard practice in labeling ecological data, enabling ecologists to quickly process large volumes of field data to understand and monitor natural environments. Current practices evaluate active learning inductively, estimating predictive performance on a held-out test set.
arXiv:2607. 03304v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable analysis of bird vocalisations in passive acoustic monitoring requires models handling multiple, imbalanced annotation targets.
Bioacoustic foundation models rely on large-scale citizen science platforms like Xeno-Canto for geographically and ecologically diverse data. Recent work has shown that supervision alone can produce SotA species detection models when trained on this large-scale data -- however, there remains unutilized potential in the form of recording metadata readily available within these community-driven data hubs.
arXiv:2607. 13555v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Bioacoustic call-type classification relies on costly expert annotation.
arXiv:2606. 14662v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Pretrained audio embeddings are standard in bioacoustics, yet little is known about which acoustic features these models encode, nor which are useful for a given task.
arXiv:2607. 13571v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sound event detection relies on frame-level strong labels whose annotation is expensive.
arXiv:2509. 04682v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Deploying reliable bioacoustic monitoring systems requires models that generalize under high-noise, low-SNR conditions and evaluation protocols that expose deployment-relevant failure modes, gaps largely unaddressed in current UPAM practice.
arXiv:2607. 07733v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Passive hydroacoustic monitoring often generates large volumes of continuous recordings that are only partially exploited due to the cost of manual annotation.
arXiv:2607. 04526v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: First-shot anomalous sound detection in DCASE Challenge Task 2 must flag anomalies of unseen machine types with a single threshold, without knowing whether a test clip comes from the data-rich source domain (990 normal training clips) or the data-scarce target domain (10).
