Project description

soundata

Common loaders for sound datasets. Find the API documentation here. Inspired by and based on mirdata. (https://github.com/soundata/soundata)

CircleCI codecov Documentation Status GitHub

This library provides tools for working with common sound datasets, including tools for:

  • Downloading datasets to a common location and format
  • Validating that the files for a dataset are all present
  • Loading annotation files to a common format
  • Parsing clip-level metadata for detailed evaluations

Installation

To install, simply run:

pip install soundata

Quick example

import soundata

urbansound8k = soundata.initialize('urbansound8k')
urbansound8k.download()  # download the dataset
urbansound8k.validate()  # validate that all the expected files are there

example_clip = urbansound8k.choice_clip()  # choose a random example clip
print(example_clip)  # see the available data

See the documentation for more examples and the API reference.
