Title: Multilabel bird species classification
Speaker: Dr. Dan Stowell
Abstract: Can you recognise which bird species are singing in a 5-second sound recording? Could a machine? We’ll describe how we built a system for the recent NIPS4b bird recognition challenge, a “multilabel” task with 87 different classes and up to 6 present at once. We’ll talk about the choice of audio features, the choice of classifiers, what the other contestants did, and the outlook for automatic bird sound recognition.
