birdvoxpaint

False-color spectrograms for long-duration bioacoustic monitoring

Installation

BirdVoxPaint is hosted on PyPI. To install, run the following command in your Python environment:

$ pip install birdvoxpaint

To install the latest version from source clone the repository and, from the top-level birdvoxpaint folder, call:

$ python setup.py install

Usage

To analyze an audio file:

import librosa
import birdvoxpaint as bvp
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# get the path to the audio file you want to use
audio_path = librosa.example('nutcracker')

# calculate acoustic indices
X = bvp.transform(
    audio_path, segment_duration=3, indices=[
        bvp.acoustic_complexity_index,
        bvp.entropy_based_concentration,
        bvp.acoustic_event_count,
    ])

print(X.shape)

# show
bvp.rgbshow(X)
plt.show()
