Efficient Recognition and Improving the Performance of Automatically Classifying Audio Recordings of Bird Sound Using Machine Learning Techniques

Abstract

As an area of interest in ecology is monitoring animal populations to better understand their behaviour, biodiversity and population dynamics. Acoustically active birds can be automatically based on their sounds and a particularly useful ecological indicator is the bird, as it responds quickly to changes in its environment. This can be done by using the method that is only for purely audio-based bird species recognition through the application of support vector machines. The deep residual neural network that has to be trained on one of the largest bird song data set in the world so as to classify bird species based on their song or sound. The existing systems on this subject has various disadvantages in term of cost, efficiency or the maintenance of their records or the data collected for the longer period of time. The proposed technique is followed by extracting cepstral features on mel scale of each audio recording from the collected standard database. Extracted mel frequency of cepstral coefficients formed a feature matrix. This feature matrix is then trained and tested for efficient recognition of audio events from audio test signals. Once the bird species is identified then it is even possible to get few features regarding that bird using this system.
