I'm excited to share this research paper, finally published!
"Bird song comparison using deep learning trained from avian perceptual judgments"
https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1012329
We attempted something quite audacious: instead of using human labels, or unsupervised learning, to train machine learning on animal sounds -- can we train an algorithm directly from the birds' own perceptual judgments?
How do birds hear the differences between their songs? #birdsong #research #ai #perception
