Abstract— Understanding animal emotions through their vocalizations is an emerging field that combines advancements in machine learning and audio analysis to enhance animal welfare, behavioral research, and human-animal interaction. This project focuses on developing a system that identifies animal emotions based on their vocal sounds by leveraging audio processing and machine learning techniques. The system processes raw audio data, extracts meaningful features like pitch, frequency, and MFCCs, and classifies the emotional states of animals such as happiness, stress, fear, or aggression.
The project follows a structured methodology, including data collection, preprocessing, feature extraction, model training, and system deployment. Machine learning models, particularly neural networks, are utilized to learn patterns within vocalization data, ensuring high accuracy in emotion classification. The system's performance is evaluated using metrics like accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score to ensure reliability and robustness.
Potential applications of this system include improving the understanding of animal behavior in research, enhancing monitoring in wildlife conservation, and supporting pet owners in better managing their animals' needs. Future enhancements aim to include real-time processing, support for diverse species, and integration with IoT devices. This project serves as a step toward bridging the gap between humans and animals by enabling a deeper comprehension of their emotional states.
