The Marinexplore and Cornell University Whale Detection Challeng - sound upcall time-frequency tracking result

NARW Upcall Time-Frequency Contour Extraction DatasetThis repository contains a program for extracting time-frequency contours from North Atlantic right whale (NARW) upcall recordings, together with the resulting extracted contour data.Data SourceThe original acoustic recordings are derived from the Kaggle Whale Detection Challenge dataset:https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/whale-detection-challenge/dataThe source dataset consists of NARW upcall audio recordings provided through Kaggle for research and challenge purposes. Please refer to the Kaggle competition page and its data usage terms for details regarding access, redistribution, and permitted use of the original audio data.Repository ContentsThis repository includes:Code for extracting time-frequency contours from NARW upcall audio signals.Extracted time-frequency contour data generated from the original audio recordings.The extracted contours represent derived time-frequency information and do not include ownership of the original audio recordings.Copyright and UsageThe copyright of the original audio recordings does not belong to the author of this repository. The original audio data remains subject to the rights and usage terms of the Kaggle Whale Detection Challenge dataset and its original providers.The author of this repository holds rights only to the contour extraction program and the derived contour extraction results generated by that program.Commercial use of this repository, including the extraction results, is not permitted without explicit permission from the repository author and without satisfying the usage terms of the original Kaggle dataset.Citation and AcknowledgmentIf you use this repository or the extracted contour data in academic work, please acknowledge both:The Kaggle Whale Detection Challenge dataset as the source of the original NARW upcall audio recordings.This repository as the source of the time-frequency contour extraction program and extracted contour results.DisclaimerThis repository is provided for academic and research purposes only.
