Abstract

Birds are an important indicator species for environmental changes, and identifying bird species can provide valuable insights into changes in their populations and habitats. This research focuses on identifying bird species using audio recordings from the BirdCLEF dataset on Kaggle. Using these audio recordings, we extracted 26 acoustic features like MFCC, spectral centroid, spectral bandwidth, etc. These features were then used to train supervised machine learning models like Decision trees, Random forests, Naive Bayes classifier, Support Vector Classifier (SVC), k-nearest neighbor (K-NN), and Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD). In the end, we trained the models using the combined features from the original audio and cleaned audio files along with feature selection by performing recursive feature elimination (RFE).
