猫叫声：一个公开的猫叫声数据集

Abstract This dataset, composed of 440 sounds, contains meows emitted by cats in different contexts. Specifically, 21 cats belonging to 2 breeds (Maine Coon and European Shorthair) have been repeatedly exposed to three different stimuli that were expected to induce the emission of meows: The dataset has been produced and employed in the context of an interdepartmental project of the University of Milan (for further information, please refer to this doi). The content of the dataset has been described in detail in a scientific work currently under review; the reference will be provided as soon as the paper is published. Naming conventions for files Files containing meows are in the dataset.zip archive. They are PCM streams (.wav). Naming conventions follow the pattern C_NNNNN_BB_SS_OOOOO_RXX, which has to be exploded as follows: Extra content The extra.zip archive contains excluded recordings (sounds other than meows emitted by cats) and uncut sequences of close vocalizations. Terms of use The dataset is open access for scientific research and non-commercial purposes. The authors require to acknowledge their work and, in case of scientific publication, to cite the most suitable reference among the following entries: Ntalampiras, S., Ludovico, L.A., Presti, G., Prato Previde, E., Battini, M., Cannas, S., Palestrini, C., Mattiello, S.: Automatic Classification of Cat Vocalizations Emitted in Different Contexts.

摘要 本数据集包含440段音频，均为不同场景下家猫发出的喵叫声。具体而言，本次数据集选取了隶属于缅因猫（Maine Coon）和欧洲短毛猫（European Shorthair）两个品种的21只家猫，使其反复暴露于三种预设可诱导其发出喵叫的刺激环境中。本数据集由米兰大学跨院系项目研发并投入使用（详细信息请参阅该DOI链接）。本数据集的详细内容已在一篇待审的学术论文中进行了完整阐述，论文正式发表后将提供完整引用信息。

文件命名规则：包含喵叫声的音频文件存储于dataset.zip压缩包中，采用PCM流格式（.wav）。文件名遵循`C_NNNNN_BB_SS_OOOOO_RXX`格式，各字段含义拆解如下：

附加内容：extra.zip压缩包中包含被排除的录音（即非家猫喵叫声的音频）以及未剪辑的近距离猫叫声序列。

使用条款：本数据集面向科学研究与非商业用途开放获取。作者要求使用者在引用本数据集时需标注其工作贡献，若用于学术发表，请从以下参考文献中选取最合适的条目进行引用：
