An apparatus for automatic speech recognition includes a plurality of processors, including template processors in which there are stored templates representative of both speech and non-speech sounds. Incoming sounds are continuously converted into digital signals in respective frames representative of speech and non-speech sounds, respectively. Sequences of such frames are compared with both the speech and non-speech templates to determine the closest matches. Endpoints of respective speech utterances are determined in response to the detection of respective non-speech-speech-non-speech sequences, whereupon such speech utterances are processed to recognize the same.

• Ontogeny in marine tagging and tracking science: technologies and data gaps (2012, background): “Intra-annual life history stages have different physiological requirements, which may result in different critical habitat and exposure to risks (e.g. breeding versus migration versus foraging; Kenney et al. 2001, Kappes et al. 2010).”
• Fine-scale prey aggregations and foraging ecology of humpback whales Megaptera novaeangliae (2009, background): “Kenney et al. (2001) suggested that while in seasonal foraging areas, North Atlantic right whales sample prey using varied sensory modalities depending upon the distance from the prey.”
• Diel periodicity in both sei whale vocalization rates and the vertical migration of their copepod prey observed from ocean gliders (2008, background): “Perhaps sei whales rely to a great extent on light to find zooplankton patches visually, which could explain why their foraging may be restricted to near-surface waters, whereas right whales may rely on sensory hairs to monitor zooplankton concentration (Kenney et al. 2001).”
• Free as a bird? Activity patterns of albatrosses during the nonbreeding period (2010, background): “Nor are there significant differences in eye structure between black-browed and grey-headed albatrosses (Martin 1998), which would suggest there is a behavioural rather than an anatomical basis for the differences in activity pattern we observed between these species.”
• Seasonal migrations of black bears (Ursus americanus): causes and consequences (2011, background): “…migrators make decisions about whether, where and when to migrate in search of foods that are beyond their normal range of familiarity and, at least initially, beyond their sensory detection, apparently relying on environmental and social cues, remains an intriguing question (Kenney et al 2001).”
