I joined the competition late and it was a lot of pressure so far. Although I love BirdCLEF competitions, this one was disappointing, especially when I searched and found that there are numerous mimicry birds that ruin the accuracy of models. I found a potential solution to deal with them, but no time remained. I give up. Good Luck!
\nFYI, to my knowledge, these are the mimicking birds:
\n'Acridotheres tristis', 'Acridotheres fuscus', 'Gracula indica', 'Eudynamys scolopaceus', 'Dicrurus leucophaeus', 'Dicrurus macrocercus', 'Dicrurus aeneus', 'Dicrurus paradiseus', 'Dendrocitta vagabunda', 'Sturnia pagodarum', 'Pastor roseus', 'Corvus splendens', 'Corvus macrorhynchos'.

Nice finding about mimicking birds. Maybe it explains why soundscape data is hard to label.
\nBut why is this making the competition disappointing? It makes it more interesting IMHO. I wish I had known about this before.
