BEANS-Next and ROOTS: Broadening Audio-Language Capabilities for Bioacoustics
Christos Plachouras, David Robinson, Marius Miron +17
Bioacoustics and ethology encompass a wide range of audio understanding tasks, many of which stand to benefit from recent advances in large audio-language models. However, progress…
Beyond task performance: Decoding bioacoustic embeddings with speech features
Ines Nolasco, Jules Cauzinille, Marius Miron +8
Pretrained audio embeddings are standard in bioacoustics, yet little is known about which acoustic features these models encode, nor which are useful for a given task. This hinders…
Multi-layer attentive probing improves transfer of audio representations for bioacoustics
Marius Miron, David Robinson, Masato Hagiwara +15
Probing heads map the representations learned from audio by a machine learning model to downstream task labels and are a key component in evaluating representation learning. Most b…
Beyond the Baseband: Adaptive Multi-Band Encoding for Full-Spectrum Bioacoustics Classification
Eklavya Sarkar, Marius Miron, David Robinson +6
Animals hear and vocalize across frequency ranges that differ substantially from humans, often extending into the ultrasonic domain. Yet most computational bioacoustics systems rel…
BAGEL: Benchmarking Animal Knowledge Expertise in Language Models
Jiacheng Shen, Masato Hagiwara, Milad Alizadeh +9
Large language models have shown strong performance on broad-domain knowledge and reasoning benchmarks, but it remains unclear how well language models handle specialized animal-re…
Audio-to-Image Bird Species Retrieval without Audio-Image Pairs via Text Distillation
Ilyass Moummad, Marius Miron, Lukas Rauch +5
Audio-to-image retrieval offers an interpretable alternative to audio-only classification for bioacoustic species recognition, but learning aligned audio-image representations is c…
Compact Hypercube Embeddings for Fast Text-based Wildlife Observation Retrieval
Ilyass Moummad, Marius Miron, David Robinson +7
Large-scale biodiversity monitoring platforms increasingly rely on multimodal wildlife observations. While recent foundation models enable rich semantic representations across visi…
