  1. Acoustic classification of multiple simultaneous bird species F. Briggs et al, Journal of Acoustical Society of America, 2012

  2. Motivation • How many of which bird is where? • Habitat loss, climate change • Birds are good indicators • Current surveys • Poor sampling • Observer error/bias • Prohibitive costs

  3. Solution? • Automatic system! • Current systems • Single bird assumption • Controlled conditions • In practice… • Noisy recordings • Simultaneous bird songs

  4. In practice… • Brown creeper • Red-breasted nuthatch • Dark-eyed junco • Chestnut-backed chickadee

  5. Multiple Instance Learning! • Bag = Spectrogram of audio • Instance = Region of spectrogram • Features • Shape of mask • Statistics of time and frequency profiles • HOG features • 13 bird classes • Multi-class (multi-label) • One-against-all

  6. Experiments • 10232 instances in 548 bags • 50% instances labeled, others “noise”? • Single instance methods • Random forest (all instances + only labeled instances) • Predict bag label from instance labels • “Multi-class multi-instance” methods • …

  7. Conclusion • Cool dataset • Weird comparison (single vs multiple instance) • Multi-label aspect? • Label correlations

  8. Experiments • “MIML RBF” • Modified Hausdorff distances (meanmin) between bags • Until the best performance is found: • K-medoids clustering for each class (with different K) • Represent bags by RBF kernels to prototypes • Least-squares linear classifiers (one for each class)
