Smart Passive Acoustic Monitoring: Embedding a Classifier on AudioMoth Microcontroller

  • 用轻量1D-CNN直接在AudioMoth上实时分析音频
  • 模型准确率达91%,内存仅占10kB,推理速度20ms
  • 适合野外长期监测,支持开源复现

被动声学监测(PAM)是一种高效且非侵入性的生态系统调查方法,可降低成本。传统方式依赖自主录音设备获取大量生物声学数据,但受限于功耗与存储空间,采集周期有限。为此,我们提出一种智能PAM系统,将分类器嵌入AudioMoth微控制器中,实现声景的本地化分析。具体地,设计了一个优化的简单1D卷积神经网络(1D-CNN),用于识别稀有物种——斯科普利剪嘴鸥的特定鸣叫声。模型在真实数据集上训练,分类准确率为91%(平衡准确率89%)。通过模型优化策略,成功实现约10kB RAM占用和20ms推理时间,满足AudioMoth的资源限制。我们还提供开源教程,涵盖模型优化与导出流程,可推广至其他任务。修改后的AudioMoth固件新增两项功能:(F1)仅在检测到目标物种时记录数据;(F2)实时记录分类结果。本工作旨在推动智能传感器发展,提升生物声学监测的效率与可扩展性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM) is an efficient and non-invasive method for surveying ecosystems at a reduced cost. Typically, autonomous recorders allow the acquisition of vast bioacoustic datasets which are then analyzed. However, power consumption and data storage are both scarce and limit the duration of acquisition campaigns. To address this issue, we propose a smart PAM system which allows the in-situ analysis of the soundscape by embedding a classifier directly onto an AudioMoth microcontroller. Specifically, we propose an optimized yet simple 1D Convolutional Neural Network (1D-CNN) to classify the raw audio. The model focuses on the specific call of Scopoli Shearwater seabirds (endangered species) and is trained on a real-world dataset with a classification accuracy of 91\% (balanced accuracy of 89\%). We also propose a process to optimize the model to fit the severe resource constraints of the AudioMoth, achieving a \~10kB RAM memory footprint and 20ms inference time. Finally, we present an open-source tutorial of our model optimization and export strategy which can be used for embedding models beyond the scope of our study. Our modified version of the AudioMoth firmware adds two functions: (F1) which selectively records data when the target species has been detected and (F2) which logs the continuous classification results in real time. This work intends to facilitate the conception of intelligent sensors, enhancing the efficiency and scalability of bioacoustic monitoring campaigns.
