Birdsong NOIZEUS: Bioacoustics noise reduction benchmark dataset

------------------------------------------------------------------------ Birdsong noizeus dataset ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Authors: Tim Sainburg & Asaf Zorea Year: 2024 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ General information ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - There are 5 recordings from each of 14 individuals (European starlings) recorded in an acoustically isolated chamber.  - For each song, we apply noise at 5 SNR levels (0dB, 5dB, 10dB, 15dB).  - There are 8 noise types, each taken from a single noise clip from the "Soundscapes from around the world" dataset. - They are "rain", "town", "wind", "waterfall", "insect", "swamp" "frogscape", "forest" - Each soundscape contains multiple noise sources.  - Noise levels were estimated using the pyloudnorm software (Steinmetz et al., 2021) - Audio is provided as waveforms at 44100 samplerate ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Data format ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - clean     - {bird_name}_{timestamp}.wav - noisy     - {snr}dB         - {bird_name}_{timestamp}_{noise_category}_{snr}.wav - noise_sample     - {snr}dB         - {bird_name}_{timestamp}_{noise_category}_{snr}.wav `clean` contains the original clean audio. `noisy` contains the song+noise `noise_sample` contains a 1-second sample of noise only.  Timestamp is in the format YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS-MILLISECONDS and refers to the time that the song was recorded.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Data sources ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Birdsong --------- Birdsong are acoustically isolated songs from 14 European Starlings https://zenodo.org/records/3237218 Citation:  Arneodo, Z., Sainburg, T., Jeanne, J., & Gentner, T.
