Optimisation of passive acoustic bird surveys: a global assessment of BirdNET settings

BirdNET is a popular machine learning tool for automated recognition of bird sounds. Here we evaluate how BirdNET settings affect the model performance both at vocalization and species levels, using 4,225 one-minute recordings from 67 recording locat...

WABAD: A World Annotated Bird Acoustic Dataset for Passive Acoustic Monitoring

Under the current global biodiversity crisis, there is a need for automated and non-invasive monitoring techniques that are able to gather large amounts of information cost-effectively at large scales. One such technique is passive acoustic monitorin... Read More about WABAD: A World Annotated Bird Acoustic Dataset for Passive Acoustic Monitoring.
