Earth soundscapes: A human-computer approach to environmental sound analysis

该项目旨在可视化和分析大声音数据，以探测动物和鸟类在不同时间和空间尺度上的叫声模式。生态声学对环境监测的规模化具有重要意义；由于由此产生的大声音数据是不透明的，其全自动分析是难以处理的，因此需要人机方法来解释数据。该项目预计将提供多尺度声音可视化、终端用户分析工具、注释和管理方法，以便人们能够洞察和准确地监控环境。

This project aims to visualise and analyse big sound data, to detect patterns of animal and bird calls at different temporal and spatial scales. Eco-acoustics are important for scaling environmental monitoring; since the resulting big sound data is opaque and its fully automated analysis is intractable, human-computer methods are needed to interpret the data. The project expects to deliver multi-scale sound visualisation, end-user analytic tools and annotation and management methods so people can monitor the environment with insight and accuracy.
