GitHub - Tyiannak - pyAudioAnalysis - Python Audio Analysis Library - Feature Extraction, Classification, Segmentation and Applications

pyAudioAnalysis is a Python library for audio analysis tasks including feature extraction, classification, segmentation, and applications. It allows users to extract audio features, classify unknown sounds, perform supervised and unsupervised segmentation, and more. The library provides wrappers to execute analysis tasks with example code showing training a classifier on folders of audio files and classifying an unknown file. It has dependencies that can be installed via pip and supports both Python and command line usage.

General
pyAudioAnalysis is a Python library covering a wide range of audio analysis tasks. Through pyAudioAnalysis you can:

Extract audio features and representations (e.g. mfccs, spectrogram, chromagram)

9/21/2019 GitHub - tyiannak/pyAudioAnalysis: Python Audio Analysis Library: Feature Extraction, Classification, Segmentation and Applications

Classify unknown sounds


Train, parameter tune and evaluate classifiers of audio segments
Detect audio events and exclude silence periods from long recordings
Perform supervised segmentation (joint segmentation - classification)
Perform unsupervised segmentation (e.g. speaker diarization)
Extract audio thumbnails
Train and use audio regression models (example application: emotion recognition)
Apply dimensionality reduction to visualize audio data and content similarities

Installation
Install dependencies:

pip install numpy matplotlib scipy sklearn hmmlearn simplejson eyed3 pydub

Clone the source of this library:

git clone https://github.com/tyiannak/pyAudioAnalysis.git

Install using pip:

pip install -e .

(also works with pip3 now)

An audio classification example


More examples and detailed tutorials can be found at the wiki

pyAudioAnalysis provides easy-to-call wrappers to execute audio analysis tasks. Eg, this code first trains an audio segment
classifier, given a set of WAV files stored in folders (each folder representing a different class) and then the trained classifier is
used to classify an unknown audio WAV file

from pyAudioAnalysis import audioTrainTest as aT


aT.featureAndTrain(["classifierData/music","classifierData/speech"], 1.0, 1.0, aT.shortTermWindow,
aT.shortTermStep, "svm", "svmSMtemp", False)
aT.fileClassification("data/doremi.wav", "svmSMtemp","svm")
Result:
(0.0, array([ 0.90156761, 0.09843239]), ['music', 'speech'])

In addition, command-line support is provided for all functionalities. E.g. the following command extracts the spectrogram of
an audio signal stored in a WAV file: python audioAnalysis.py fileSpectrogram -i data/doremi.wav
