Abstract
We automatically segmented a humpback whale song using the Roger Payne's principle of sound unit and we patterned and automatically classified intonations of sound units thanks to an unsupervised algorithm to describe recurrent patterns. We determined 6 different patterns of intonation. Some different sound units present the same pattern of intonation and one sound unit can be submitted to different patterns of intonation. Intonation could be related to information's transmission between humpback whales while they are singing.
