Clearer documentation on what the non-event classes are

Open joshctaylor opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Describe the bug The 2021 birdnet paper lists the following non-event classes.

  • animals (e.g., insects, anurans, mammals),
  • geophysical noise (e.g., wind, rain, thunder),
  • human vocal and non-vocal sounds (e.g., whistling, footsteps, speech),
  • anthropogenic sounds typically encountered in urban areas (e.g., cars, airplanes, sirens)
  • electronic recorder noise

The version guide states there are 10 non-event classes in v2.4. What are the labels?

By searching BirdNET_GLOBAL_6K_V2.4_Labels.txt I only found the following:

  • Human non-vocal_Human non-vocal
  • Human vocal_Human vocal
  • Human whistle_Human whistle
  • Noise_Noise
