Uncertainty Calibration of Multi-Label Bird Sound Classifiers
Raphael Schwinger, Ben McEwen, Vincent S. Kather +3
Passive acoustic monitoring enables large-scale biodiversity assessment, but reliable classification of bioacoustic sounds requires not only high accuracy but also well-calibrated…
Unmute the Patch Tokens: Rethinking Probing in Multi-Label Audio Classification
Lukas Rauch, René Heinrich, Houtan Ghaffari +4
Although probing frozen models has become a standard evaluation paradigm, self-supervised learning in audio defaults to fine-tuning when pursuing state-of-the-art on AudioSet. A ke…
Adversarial Training Improves Generalization Under Distribution Shifts in Bird Sound Classification
René Heinrich, Lukas Rauch, Raphael Schwinger +4
Adversarial training is a promising strategy for enhancing robustness against adversarial attacks, but its impact on generalization under substantial distribution shifts in audio c…
Can Masked Autoencoders Also Listen to Birds?
Lukas Rauch, René Heinrich, Ilyass Moummad +3
Masked Autoencoders (MAEs) learn rich semantic representations in audio classification through an efficient self-supervised reconstruction task. However, general-purpose models fai…
AudioProtoPNet: An interpretable deep learning model for bird sound classification
René Heinrich, Lukas Rauch, Bernhard Sick +1
Deep learning models have significantly advanced acoustic bird monitoring by being able to recognize numerous bird species based on their vocalizations. However, traditional deep l…
BirdSet: A Large-Scale Dataset for Audio Classification in Avian Bioacoustics
Lukas Rauch, Raphael Schwinger, Moritz Wirth +8
Deep learning (DL) has greatly advanced audio classification, yet the field is limited by the scarcity of large-scale benchmark datasets that have propelled progress in other domai…
