We propose minimum entropy rate simplification (MERS), an information-theoretic, parameterization-independent framework for simplifying generative models of stochastic processes. Applications include improving model quality for sampling tasks by conc...
To understand the proximate and ultimate causes that shape acoustic communication in animals, objective characterizations of the vocal repertoire of a given species are critical, as they provide the foundation for comparative analyses among individua...
OBJECTIVE: The human auditory system acquires environmental information under sound stimuli faster than visual or touch systems, which in turn, allows for faster human responses to such stimuli. It also complements senses such as sight, where direct ...

An automatic detector for identifying the clicks and pulsed calls of Pacific white-sided dolphins (Lagenorhynchus obliquidens) was developed using a convolutional neural network architecture for passive acoustic monitoring, particularly in the areas ...
UNLABELLED: A new lung sound analysis software program has been developed. It can automatically select a typical lung sound spectrogram and calculate lung sound parameters using machine learning programs. This study aimed to clarify lung sound charac...

Neurogenic voice disorders (NVDs) are caused by damage or malfunction of the central or peripheral nervous system that controls vocal fold movement. In this paper, we investigate the potential of the Fisher vector (FV) encoding in automatic detection...

Whales generate vocalizations which may, deliberately or not, encode caller identity cues. In this study, we analyze calls produced by Bryde's whales and recorded by ocean-bottom arrays of hydrophones deployed close to the Costa Rica Rift in the Pana...

Vocal intensity is quantified by sound pressure level (SPL). The SPL can be measured by either using a sound level meter or by comparing the energy of the recorded speech signal with the energy of the recorded calibration tone of a known SPL. Neither...

The quantity of passive acoustic data collected in marine environments is rapidly expanding; however, the software developments required to meaningfully process large volumes of soundscape data have lagged behind. A significant bottleneck in the anal...
