Song Scope frog identification failed on roughly half of recordings
Evidence
For instance, its application to study the long-term dynamics of frogs has been tried by Waddle et al. (2009), processing 200 h of recordings of three species of frogs: green treefrog (Hyla cinerea), American bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus), and bronze frog (Lithobates clamitans). Identification of the different species of frogs was biased by false positives (2.7–15.8 % per species) and failed to identify species (false negatives) in 45–51 % of recordings. … This method requires a prudent approach to be used for a large monitoring network. — Almo Farina, Soundscape Ecology, 2055
