BirdVoxDetect v0.6: a better classifier, new species encodings, and β-testing
Vincent Lostanlen
Dear members of the BirdVox discussion group,
I hope that you are having a good summer.
On behalf of the BirdVox team, it is my pleasure to announce the
release of the sixth version of the BirdVoxDetect software. I
thank the β-testers of BirdVoxDetect v0.5 and everyone who
provided feedback since my last email from January 2021,
announcing the v0.5 series. Special thanks to β-testers Wim van
Dam and Kevin Tolan who helped me fix installation issues :)
Below my signature is a detailed description of what has changed since BirdVoxDetect v0.5.
You may already install the β version of BirdVoxDetect v0.6 via the Python Package Index
pip install birdvoxdetect==0.6.0b1
Or from the source code: https://github.com/BirdVox/birdvoxdetect
We are actively looking for beta-testers, so please contact me on this discussion group or via the GitHub issue tracker to report feedback.
Once the most urgent feedback is addressed, we'll release BirdVoxDetect v0.6 in its "stable" form.
Sincerely,
Vincent.
The main change with respect to the v0.5 series is the update
from BirdVoxClassify v0.2 to v0.3. The species classifier is now
"flat multitask" by default and includes hierarchical consistency.
This classifier has proven more accurate than TaxoNet in our
experiments. Many thanks to Aurora Cramer for her work on
BirdVoxClassify.
Furthermore, the order "Passeriforme" is now spelled in the
plural: "Passeriformes".
We have added various encodings for species: English name,
scientific (Latin) name, and 4-letter code (#85).
The "other" class is represented as an empty string.
Lastly, we have truncated the number of digits of confidence in
the checklist (#86).

birdvoxdetect 0.6.0 depends on tensorflow<2.4 and >=2.2
birdvoxdetect 0.3.0 depends on tensorflow==1.15.2
birdvoxdetect 0.2.5 depends on tensorflow==1.15.2
birdvoxdetect 0.2.3 depends on tensorflow==1.15.2
birdvoxdetect 0.2.2 depends on tensorflow==1.15.2

birdvoxdetect 0.2.0 depends on tensorflow==1.15
birdvoxdetect 0.1.2 depends on scipy==1.3.1

I had version 0.5 running under MacOS, but the new 0.6 is giving me an error that package versions have conflicting dependencies (see below). I've tried to install in a new user account, but get the same result. Any advise?

Hello John, Martin, and all,
Dependency resolution in BirdVoxDetect has become extremely difficult these days, for reasons i don't fully understand. All we're asking for is scikit-learn + tensorflow
It's not clear to me how i can improve the situation, especially given that i don't have a Windows machine
Right now, your best option is to download BirdVoxDetect from source (github.com/BirdVox/birdvoxdetect) and import it directly from your Python session after having installed all the necessary dependencies
For BirdVoxDetect v1.0, i would like to retrain the model on as much data as possible. I will make sure to use more recent versions of TensorFlow for this so as to ease the installation process
Sincerely,
Vincent
