Activity/health status of a bee colony by audio analysis

Introduction

The people around Open Source Beehives (OSBH) were directing towards audio from the very beginning and therefore presenting coefficients which where won via machine learning, learned via the audio-samples they had so far.

The output is simply the activity/health status of a bee colony. So far the algorithm can tell whether the colony is dormant, active, pre-, post- or swarming, if the queen is missing or hatching. For more background information about the audio processing, please follow up reading current work status thread in the OSBH Forum. So far, the results are promising.

Details

We forked the "OSBH machine learning" repository to osbh-audioanalyzer to make it able to obtain an input file option. The wrapper script resides in the [audiohealth] repository.

For more information, see also Rate vitality of bee colony via analysing its sound.

Usage

Synopsis:

audiohealth --audiofile ~/audio/samples/beehive_before_25_to_15.ogg --analyzer tools/osbh-audioanalyzer/bin/test

======
Result
======
The most common events (i.e. the events with the highest total duration) are:

     The colony is mostly in »PRE-SWARM« state, which is going on for 320 seconds.
     Sometimes, the state oscillates to »ACTIVE«, for 280 seconds in total.

Setup

Repository

git clone --recursive https://github.com/hiveeyes/audiohealth
cd audiohealth

Prerequisites

To relieve your machine from compiling SciPy or NumPy, install the python libraries from your distribution. audiohealth furthermore relies on sox for audio resampling. We also recommend youtube-dl for downloading audio samples from Youtube.

Install some distribution software packages:

apt install python-scipy python-numpy sox libsox-fmt-mp3 youtube-dl

Build the osbh-audioanalyzer:

cd tools/osbh-audioanalyzer/
./build.sh
cd ../..

Main program

virtualenv --system-site-packages .venv27
source .venv27/bin/activate
python setup.py develop

Credits

The driving force behind the audio signal processing at OSBH is Javier Andrés Calvo, so we want to send a big thank you to him and the whole OSBH team - this program is really standing on the shoulders of giants. Keep up the good work!
