Introduction

This repository contains a demonstration of the trained models proposed in "Bat Echolocation Call Detection and Species Recognition by Transformers with Self-Attention".

Setup

1. Clone this repository and install the required packages. Make sure to use Python 3.7 or newer.

   cd transformer4bats/ 
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

2. Download the model files and place them into the models directory.
3. Use simple_infer.ipynb to run the bat call detection. By default, a file provided by the Tierstimmenarchiv is used.
