动态调整采样策略,提升生物声学事件分类的标注效率

Adaptive Diversity-Uncertainty Active Learning with Redundancy Control for Bioacoustic Event Classification

  • 根据模型置信度自适应切换探索与利用模式
  • 在鸟鸣和海洋声景上均实现更高学习效率
  • 适合噪声大、分布异质的生态监测场景

主动学习可显著降低大规模生物声学监测中的标注成本,但现有方法多采用静态采样标准,难以适应训练过程中模型预测可靠性变化,导致探索-利用失衡与样本冗余。本文提出一种面向多标签生物声学事件分类的主动学习策略,联合建模预测不确定性、嵌入空间多样性与批次内冗余控制。该方法引入自适应加权机制,在高不确定性阶段侧重多样性探索,随着模型信心提升逐步转向不确定性驱动的利用,反映分类器可靠性增强。为提升标注效率,采用贪心最大边际相关性(MMR)算法,在每批采样中强制样本多样性。在基于预训练音频嵌入和固定标注预算的BioDCASE 2026 Task 4框架下,于陆地(BirdSet)与海洋(ATBFL)基准上进行评估。实验结果表明,该方法在异质声学域中持续提升学习效率,宏平均精确率(mAP)与学习曲线下面积(AULC)表现优异;在结构化陆地声景中优势显著,海洋噪声环境下亦保持竞争力。结果证明,结合不确定性估计、嵌入空间多样性与冗余感知批构建的自适应采样策略,是生物声学主动学习的有效且鲁棒的解决方案。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Active learning is a promising framework for reducing annotation costs in large-scale bioacoustic monitoring, where expert labeling is expensive and data distributions are highly heterogeneous across environments. However, existing sample selection strategies often rely on static criteria that do not adapt to the evolving reliability of model predictions during training. This limitation can lead to suboptimal exploration-exploitation trade-offs and redundant sample selection. We propose an active learning strategy for multilabel bioacoustic event classification that jointly models predictive uncertainty, embedding-space diversity, and intra-batch redundancy. The method introduces an adaptive weighting scheme that progressively shifts from diversity-driven exploration in high-uncertainty regimes toward uncertainty-driven exploitation as the model becomes more confident, reflecting the increasing reliability of the classifier. To further improve annotation efficiency, a greedy Maximum Marginal Relevance (MMR) procedure is used to enforce diversity among selected samples within each acquisition batch. We evaluate the proposed approach within the BioDCASE 2026 Task 4 active learning framework on terrestrial (BirdSet) and marine (ATBFL) benchmarks using pretrained audio embeddings and a fixed annotation budget. Experimental results show consistent improvements in learning efficiency and competitive in terms of macro mean Average Precision (mAP) and Area Under the Learning Curve (AULC) across heterogeneous acoustic domains. The gains are particularly pronounced on structured terrestrial soundscapes, while performance remains competitive under noisier marine conditions. These findings demonstrate that adaptive acquisition strategies combining uncertainty estimation, embedding-space diversity, and redundancy-aware batch construction provide an effective and robust solution for [...].
