Classification of marine acoustic signals using Wavelets & Neural Networks
We describe a method to automatically classify Humpback whale (Megaptera Novaeangliae) song that offers improvements over matched spectrogram techniques currently widely employed. Humpback song is a useful training example for a range of ocean acoustic transient detection and classification problems...

Humpback song is a useful training example for a range of ocean acoustic transient detection and classification problems because it consists of units of varying length, frequency range and type, from nearly tonal to highly transient.

The approach has the added benefits of being shift invariant with respect to time, and somewhat tolerant of frequency and time stretching.
