CLO-WTSP-AUDIO ============== Created By ---------- Justin Salamon, Andrew Farnsworth, and Matt Robbins. Version 1.0 Description ----------- The CLO-WTSP-AUDIO dataset contains 16703 audio clips: 1538 containing WTSP flight calls, 2632 containing flight calls from other species, and 12533 containing no flight call at all. All clips were recorded using remote acoustic sensors as described in [1], and are divided into two sets: 5016 were collected during fall 2014, and 11687 were collected during spring 2015. The two sets were used for training and testing respectively in [1]. The dataset can be used, amongst other things, for the research, development and testing of bioacoustic classification models, including the reproduction of the results reported in: [1] J. Salamon, J. P. Bello, A. Farnsworth, M. Robbins, S. Keen, H. Klinck and S. Kelling, “Towards the Automatic Classification of Avian Flight Calls for Bioacoustic Monitoring”, submitted. Data Files ---------- Data files are divided into two folders: fall2014_train: clips recorded during fall 2014 (training set in [1]) spring2015_test: clips recorded during spring 2015 (test set in [1]) All 16703 clips in this dataset are provided in WAV format with 16 bit precision and a single channel (mono). The fall 2014 clips have a sample rate of 32000 Hz, the spring 2015 clips have a sample rate of 48000 Hz. The name of each file (up to the first ‘.’) represents the clip ID. This ID can be used to obtain clip metadata (including the clip label) by finding the corresponding row in the corresponding metadata file (see Metadata Files). Metadata Files -------------- 2 metadata files are provided in CSV format: CLO-WTSP-AUDIO_fall2014_train.csv: metadata for data files in fall2014_train CLO-WTSP-AUDIO_spring2015_test.csv: metadata for data files in spring2015_test Each file contains 3 columns: - id: the file ID (matches filename up to first ‘.’) - timezone: the date and time when the clip was recorded - label: the label of the clip, one of: WTSP / FLIGHTCALL / REJECT - WTSP: clip contains a WTSP flight call - FLIGHTCALL: clip contains a flight call from a species other than WTSP - REJECT: clip does not contain a flight call Please Acknowledge CLO-WTSP-AUDIO in Academic Research ------------------------------------------------------ When CLO-WTSP-AUDIO is used for academic research, we would highly appreciate it if scientific publications of works partly based on this dataset cite the following publication: J. Salamon, J. P. Bello, A. Farnsworth, M. Robbins, S. Keen, H. Klinck and S. Kelling, “Towards the Automatic Classification of Avian Flight Calls for Bioacoustic Monitoring”, submitted. The creation of this dataset was supported by NSF 1125098, Leon Levy Foundation, and two anonymous donors.
