| Abstract: | Bats are one of the most diverse species on earth. Due to deteriorating environmental conditions bat fauna across the globe are endangered. One of the important characteristics of Bats is bioindication. Not only do they provide highly beneficial services to nature such as pollination and pest control, they provide useful insights on the changes occurring to the ecosystem as a result of anthropogenic change. Therefore, bat tracking helps in conservation of endangered bat species and also to measure trends in biodiversity. The existing systems till now have focused only on the task of species classification neglecting the task of first localizing bat calls. This project develops a convolutional neural network based pipeline for automatically detecting searchphase calls produced by echolocating bats in noisy, real world recordings. The proposed CNN architecture is made up of four convolutional layers. The ReLU activation function is used, and both max and average pooling have been incorporated after each convolutional layer. Finally, the output of the convolutional layers are fed into a fully connected layer, and then to a softmax layer which returns the probability of the audio files containing bat call. This CNN is applied in a Sliding window manner to accommodate audio files of various durations. Since CNN network can only be used on images, audio files are first converted into spectrogram or time-frequency representation and then denoised. The results of our proposed model were compared with other existing models on different evaluation metrics like precision, recall, ROC curves and PR curves. The proposed model performed better than the existing systems on three different acoustic datasets. Around 500 more bat calls were detected across all 3 datasets compared to that of the existing systems, with significant increase in recall of the proposed model, as high as 11% compared to existing systems. Though the detection process was effective, the main drawback of this work was the lack of graphical support it provided. Providing a GUI would make this process user friendly. A future enhancement to improve detection performance would be to create an ensemble CNN model trained with both STFT and MFCC representation separately |
