Tools of soundscape information retrieval
Author: Tzu-Hao Harry Lin (schonkopf@gmail.com)
This is a python version of Soundscape_Viewer (originally MATLAB-based tool), which aims to facilitate the visualization, source separation, and event identification of long-duration field recordings.
In order to facilitate the cloud computation, several functions were added to assist the data retrieval from cloud-based platforms (e.g., Google Drive). Now you can access the audio data archived on pumilio-based soundscape archive (e.g., Asian Soundscape) and visualize a large amount of audio data by using the long-term spectrograms. You can also employ the source separation to imporve the acoustic analysis result. Finally, apply a clustering tool to investigate the acoustic phenology.
Future works:
- Support interactive visualization of clustering result (under development).
- More source separation and clustering functions will be added (scheduled at 2020 winter).
