Classification of Echolocation Calls from 14 Species of Bat by Support Vector Machines and Ensembles of Neural Networks

Calls from 14 species of bat were classified to genus and species using discriminant function analysis (DFA), support vector machines (SVM) and ensembles of neural networks (ENN). Both SVMs and ENNs outperformed DFA for every species while ENNs (mean identification rate – 97%) consistently outperfor...
