Abstract

This article is related to the development of techniques for automatic recognition of bird species by their sounds. It has been demonstrated earlier that a simple model of one time-varying sinusoid is very useful in classification and recognition of typical bird sounds, However, a large class of bird sounds are not pure sinusoids but have a clear harmonic spectrum structure. In this article, we introduce a way to classify bird syllables into four classes by their harmonic structure.
