arXiv:2605. 12534v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Most work in audio enhancement targets human speech, while bioacoustics is less studied due to noisy recordings and the distinct traits of animal sounds.
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:2609.15221v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Passive acoustic monitoring can measure biodiversity at larger scales, but time--frequency annotation of animal vocalizations is expensive, site-spec...
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:2609.35863v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern bioacoustic foundation models like Perch and BirdNET can identify species with high discriminative accuracy, yet their confidence scores are o...
arXiv:2607. 14474v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper details the DS@GT ARC team's approach to BirdCLEF+ 2026, multi-label detection of animal vocalizations in soundscapes from the Pantanal wetlands.
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.
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:2606. 12662v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speech enhancement models typically apply uniform capacity across all frequencies, disregarding the non-uniform spectral resolution of human hearing.

arXiv:2606. 23761v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spiking neural network (SNN)-based neuromorphic speech enhancement has emerged as a promising paradigm due to its energy efficiency, yet it still underperforms classical artificial neural network (ANN)-based approaches owing to binary activations and the lack of well-designed network architectures.
The paper proposes a single‑utterance test‑time adaptation (TTA) method for speech enhancement that uses an autoregressive prior trained on clean speech latent representations from a neural audio codec. The adaptation regularizes a pretrained enhancement model by minimizing the Kullback‑Leibler divergence between the enhanced speech distribution and the clean speech prior. Experiments on multiple noisy speech datasets demonstrate consistent improvements in speech quality, especially when training and testing noise conditions differ.
