The following papers have been published from my Ph.D. program:

1) "Using local binary patterns as features for classification of dolphin calls," The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 134(1), EL105-EL111, 2013. http://goo.gl/6Tdco2

2) "Sparse representation for classification of dolphin whistles by type," The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America 136 (1), EL1-EL7, 2014. http://goo.gl/dB6tyY

Please read my Ph.D. dissertation and corresponding papers and please cite them in your scientific papers as I critically need your citations in order to continue my research and better serve the bioacoustic community.

Thank you very much and appreciate your help,

Regards,
