Abstract

Compression distances can be a very useful tool in automatic object clustering because of their parameter-free nature. However, when they are used to compare very different-sized objects with a high percentage of noise, their behaviour might be unpredictable. In order to address this drawback, we have develop an automatic object segmentation methodology prior to the string-compression-based object clustering. Our experimental results using the xeno-canto database show that this methodology can be successfully applied to automatic bird species identification from their sounds. These results show that applying our methodology significantly improves the clustering performance of bird sounds compared to the performance obtained without applying our automatic object segmentation methodology.
