    1. Beyond just audio recordings so for that reason two of our senior 00:15:02 researchers Benjamin Hoffman and Maddie cusumano have also developed a biologer benchmark data set and so a biologer is an animal born tag like the one in the image on the right here 00:15:14 and these produce very valuable data because they can inform us about animal ecophysiology and allow us to improve conservation by monitoring animal movements and behaviors with very high 00:15:27 resolution

    2. beans and 00:13:54 this is a benchmark of animal sounds and it's a collection of audio recordings from more than 250 species and this large aggregate data set is a way to 00:14:07 test tools for classification and detection and these are outstanding problems in bioacoustics that we desperately need solutions to

      • Abstract

        • The use of machine learning (ML) based techniques has become increasingly popular in the field of bioacoustics over the last years.
        • Fundamental requirements for the successful application of ML based techniques are curated, agreed upon, high-quality datasets and benchmark tasks to be learned on a given dataset.
        • However, the field of bioacoustics so far lacks such public benchmarks which cover multiple tasks and species to measure the performance of ML techniques in a controlled and standardized way and that allows for benchmarking newly proposed techniques to existing ones.
        • Here, we propose BEANS (the BEnchmark of ANimal Sounds), a collection of bioacoustics tasks and public datasets, specifically designed to measure the performance of machine learning algorithms in the field of bioacoustics.
        • The benchmark proposed here consists of two common tasks in bioacoustics:
          • classification and
          • detection.
        • It includes 12 datasets covering various species, including
          • birds,
          • land and marine mammals,
          • anurans, and insects.
        • In addition to the datasets, we also present the performance of a set of standard ML methods as the baseline for task performance.
        • The benchmark and baseline code is made publicly available at
        • in the hope of establishing a new standard dataset for ML-based bioacoustic research.
