Make Your Own Recogniser
As part of the 2026 World Ecoacoustics Congress we are running
a workshop for building and automated call recognisers within the Ecosounds. The goal of this workshop is for
each participant to leave with a working call recogniser for a single species-call of
their choice. It covers some basic theory of convolutional neural networks, embeddings and
embedding based classifiers. We are using Perch
This workshop is run by QUT ecoacoustics group with support from the Australian Research Data Commons, and from Google Deepmind, the developers of the Perch embedding model and Agile Modelling workflow.
