In the field of computer music, melodic based forms of vocalizations have often been used as channels to access subject’s queries and retrieve information from music databases. In this study, we look at percussive forms of vocalizations... more
The goal of this study is to utilize music theory principles to increase the effectiveness of existing manatee detection software, reducing boat collisions and manatee fatalities. The hypothesis states that if at least one music theory... more
Determining whether a species’ vocal communication system is graded or discrete requires definition of its vocal repertoire. In this context, research on domestic pig (Sus scrofa domesticus) vocalizations, for example, has led to... more
