Abstract

bird audio detection Birds bulbul Convergence Convolutional neural networks Deep convolutional neural networks Feature extraction KL divergence layer initialisation layer weighting Task analysis Time-frequency analysis Training
In this paper, we address the problem of bird audio detection and propose a new convolutional neural network architecture together with a divergence based information channel weighing strategy in order to achieve improved state-of-the-art performance and faster convergence. The effectiveness of the methodology is shown on the Bird Audio Detection Challenge 2018 (Detection and Classification of Acoustic Scenes and Events Challenge, Task 3) development data set.
