DCLDE 2011 Annotated odontocete whistles

Metadata Updated: March 1, 2026

The fifth conference for the Detection, Classification, Density Estimation, and Localization of Marine Mammals Using Passive Acoustics (DCLDE 2011) asked participants to create algorithms to annotate toothed whale whistles with detailed time-frequency contours. Details on the corpus and the annotation methods that were used to annotate it can be found in Roch et al. (2011, DOI: 10.1121/1.3624821). The dataset's README.md file provides a brief summary.
