Eco-acoustics data visualization and analysis

maui-software

maui-software is an open-source Python package to visualize eco-acoustic data. This work intends to help ecology specialists to perform data analysis with no need to implement visualizations, enabling faster analysis.

Operating Systems

maui-software was tested on the following operating systems:

• Windows
• Ubuntu

Dependencies

• python >=3.9,<3.13
• scikit-maad = 1.3.0
• plotly >= 5.16.1
• tqdm >= 4.66.1
• fpdf >= 1.7.2
• audioread >= 3.0.0
• numpy >= 1.19.5
• pandas >= 1.1.5
• kaleido = 0.2.1

Installation

$ pip install maui-software

Quick Start

To use maui-software, one must have a single audio file or, preferencially, a set of audio files and load them as follows:

from maui import io
audio_dir = 'PATH_TO_DIRECTORY'
df = io.get_audio_info(audio_dir, store_duration=1, perc_sample=0.01)

df

Special thanks to the spatial ecology and conservation laboratory (LEEC, in portuguese) at São Paulo State University (UNESP, in portuguese) for the data set provided and expert support.

Also, maui-software uses scikit-maad to calculate acoustic indices and spectrograms from audio. We finally acknowledge the financial support of FAPESP (The State of São Paulo Research Foundation) Grant # 2021/08322-3.
