Can Self-Supervised Neural Representations Pre-Trained on Human Speech distinguish Animal Callers?

Mathew Magimai Doss, Eklavya Sarkar

Self-supervised learning (SSL) models use only the intrinsic structure of a given signal, independent of its acoustic domain, to extract essential information from the input to an embedding space. This implies that the utility of such representations is no ...
