Scientists are trying to use AI models to decode the secret language of dogs. Here's how they hope to do it.

The secret language of dogs is an intriguing thing. I’ve long wished I could understand the little grunts and barks my corgi sends my way each day. Sure, we can come up with our own interpretations, but what do those sounds really mean to the dogs making them? Well, AI could soon help us figure that out.

From there, they further fine-tuned it with barks from 74 dogs, including 21 French Poodles, 11 Schnauzers, and 42 Chihuahuas. Overall, the model trained on humans and dogs was able to identify the breed and emotion with 62 percent accuracy. It was able to identify the gender 69 percent of the time and could even identify a particular dog out of a set 50 percent of the time. This model did much better than the AI model, which was trained only on dogs.
