提出跨域蚊子物种分类基线系统,揭示泛化能力是实际应用核心挑战。

BioDCASE 2026 Challenge Baseline for Cross-Domain Mosquito Species Classification

  • 采用多时序卷积网络与对数梅尔特征,同时预测物种和采集域。
  • 在已知数据上表现良好,但在未知场景下性能显著下降。
  • 适合关注生物声学监测、跨域模型泛化的研究者参考。

蚊媒疾病每年影响超过十亿人,导致近百万死亡。传统监测依赖捕获陷阱和人工识别,效率低且难以规模化。基于音频的监测可实现非破坏性、低成本、可扩展的补充,但真实环境下的物种分类仍面临挑战:蚊子飞行音调窄带、信噪比低,易被背景噪声掩盖,且多种流行病学相关物种的数据有限,导致类别严重不平衡。设备、环境和采集协议的差异进一步加剧分类难度,模型可能依赖特定采集域的伪影而非真实声学特征,导致在新场景下迁移困难。BioDCASE 2026跨域蚊子物种分类(CD-MSC)挑战赛围绕此部署难题设计,评估模型在已见与未见域的表现。本文提供官方基线系统与完整评估流程,采用对数梅尔特征和多时序分辨率卷积神经网络(MTRCNN),输出物种与辅助域信息,并附完整训练与测试脚本。基线系统在已见域表现优异,但在未见域性能显著下降,表明跨域泛化而非域内识别,才是从多源生物声学数据中实现实用蚊子物种分类的核心挑战。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Mosquito-borne diseases affect more than one billion people each year and cause close to one million deaths. Traditional surveillance methods rely on traps and manual identification that are slow, labor-intensive, and difficult to scale. Audio-based mosquito monitoring offers a non-destructive, lower-cost, and more scalable complement to trap-based surveillance, but reliable species classification remains difficult under real-world recording conditions. Mosquito flight tones are narrow-band, often low in signal-to-noise ratio, and easily masked by background noise, and recordings for several epidemiologically relevant species remain limited, creating pronounced class imbalance. Variation across devices, environments, and collection protocols further increases the difficulty of robust classification. Such variation can cause models to rely on domain-specific recording artefacts rather than species-relevant acoustic cues, which makes transfer to new acquisition settings difficult. The BioDCASE 2026 Cross-Domain Mosquito Species Classification (CD-MSC) challenge is designed around this deployment problem by evaluating performance on both seen and unseen domains. This paper presents the official baseline system and evaluation pipeline as a simple, fully reproducible reference for the CD-MSC challenge task. The baseline uses log-mel features and a multitemporal resolution convolutional neural network (MTRCNN) with species and auxiliary domain outputs, together with complete training and test scripts. The baseline system performs strongly on seen domains but degrades markedly on unseen domains, showing that cross-domain generalisation, rather than within-domain recognition, is the central challenge for practical mosquito species classification from multi-source bioacoustic recordings.
