Dear all,
We are pleased to announce the BioDCASE challenge for 2026 - the
Bioacoustics Data Challenge!
https://biodcase.github.io/challenge2026/
We are launching SIX tasks - each one designed by a dedicated team to
represent a task that the bioacoustics community wants to solve.
Newly-assembled open audio data will be released in April, giving you
time to work with the data before the challenge deadline of 15th June.
The BioDCASE 2026 tasks are:
1. Multi-channel alignment
2. Supervised detection of strongly-labelled Antarctic blue and fin
whale calls
3. Bioacoustics for tiny hardware
4. Active Learning for Bioacoustics
5. Cross-Domain Mosquito Species Classification
6. Bird Counting
More details:

Please forward this announcement to anyone who might be interested.
Students, data scientists, colleagues.
And please sign up to the BioDCASE forum (mailing list) if you would
like to stay up-to-date.
Best wishes
Dan Stowell and the BioDCASE organising committee
