Pretrained out-of-species embeddings from models like Perch achieve AUCs of 0.849-0.936 on African and Asian elephant calls, within 2.2% of end-to-end supervised systems, with early transformer layers sufficing for compact on-device use.

Curates over 900 hours of SRKW acoustic data plus other marine mammal recordings via positive-unlabeled active learning, releasing transformer classifiers that report AUROC 0.58-0.77 and species top-1 accuracy of 53.2% on held-out benchmarks.
Bacpipe is a modular Python package that integrates state-of-the-art bioacoustic deep learning models to generate embeddings, classifier predictions, and evaluation pipelines for custom audio data.
The paper introduces CoarseSoundNet, a deep learning model for classifying biophony, geophony, and anthropophony in passive acoustic monitoring recordings, reporting performance gains from additional similar data, a silence class, and decision thresholds, plus a case study on acoustic index trends.
