Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Identifying acoustic features to distinguish between highly and moderately altered soundscapes in Colombia

Notes: Sumario: In this study, we conduct an empirical investigation into the selection of acoustic features for discriminating between highly and moderately transformed versions of four Colombian soundscapes: moorlands, coffee plantations, dry tropical forests, and pastures. We employ classical supervised feature selection techniques along with exploratory tools such as correlation matrices and scatter plots. Our results indicate that a few acoustic features are sufficient to differentiate between the classes. Specifically, those features that estimate acoustic complexity via intrinsic variability of sound intensities or biodiversity through species richness or abundance in specific frequency bands are the most discriminative ones. These findings suggest that the selection of acoustic features can assist in analyzing and distinguishing between different soundscapesRelated records: En: Revista Iberoamericana de Inteligencia Artificial. - : IBERAMIA, Sociedad Iberoamericana de Inteligencia Artificial , 2018- = ISSN 1988-3064. - 13/03/2023 Volumen 26 Número 71 - marzo 2023 , pp. 34-45Materia / lugar / evento: Inteligencia artificial Métodos de investigación Acústica Medidores de exposición sonora Modelos de dispersión Colombia Otros autores: Orozco-Alzate, Mauricio
