<abstract>This paper attempts to discover communication patterns automatically within dog vocalizations in a data-driven approach, which breaks the barrier previous approaches that rely on human prior knowledge on limited data. We present a self-supervised approach with HuBERT, enabling the accurate classification of phones, and an adaptive grammar induction method that identifies phone sequence patterns that suggest a preliminary vocabulary within dog vocalizations. Our results show that a subset of this vocabulary has substantial causality relations with certain canine activities, suggesting signs of stable semantics associated with these “words”.</abstract>
