#bioacoustics — Public Fediverse posts

Fascinating article about researchers reconstructing the sounds of Jurassic insects related to crickets and katydids.

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🐕🗣️ In #Budapest, researchers train #dogs to bark on cue, to study whether domestication shaped vocal #learning and its ties to #speech #evolution.

Embedded in the EU-funded #K9VocLearn project, the work links to the self-#domestication hypothesis and could inform #tools that someday read dog emotion from their #sounds. A citizen #science arm invites dog owners worldwide to contribute recordings.

"Listening to nature Naturalis and LIACS join forces" - A short article about what we're doing with AI for nature https://www.naturalis.nl/en/follow-our-stories/listening-to-nature-naturalis-and-liacs-join-forces #bioacoustics #aifornature #ai4good

BioDCASE challenge - the evaluation datasets are now available! https://biodcase.github.io/challenge2026/ Looking forward to seeing what new researchers will develop with this animal sound data. #bioacoustics #datachallenge #ai4good

BioDCASE challenge now open! Datasets and code for SIX computational tasks in animal sound: https://biodcase.github.io/challenge2026/ (Do share it to students etc!) #bioacoustics #machinelistening #ai4good #DCASE

I was really pleased to be at the "Climate AI Nordics" workshop. Here's my talk, putting our AI-for-nature together with climate footprint questions: "Bioacoustic AI for nature: how can it tread lightly?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gcpKav1xBg #ai4good #aifornature #bioacoustics

I'm excited - the evaluation data for BioDCASE has been released! https://biodcase.github.io/challenge2025/ New acoustic data from forests and oceans, for testing machine learning's ability to listen to wildlife! I'd love to know if your team will submit a solution to #BioDCASE. #machinelearning #ai4good #bioacoustics

New video lecture: "AI for wildlife sounds: How best to retrain deep learning models for bioacoustics" https://youtu.be/VC9XLvIbHKU (This is the talk I gave at the Urban Sound Symposium 2025.) #machinelearning #ai4good #bioacoustics

How can soundscapes be used as a way to attend to forest life and the many different ways that we narrate and relate to forests?

The forestscapes project aims to explore and document generative arts-based methods for recomposing collections of sound materials to support “collective inquiry” into forests as living cultural landscapes.

As part of the project we have an open call for folders of forest sounds.
