Chirpdetector

Detect communication signals of electric fish using deep neural networks 🐟⚡🧠
This project is still work in progress and will approximately be released in spring of 2024.

Why? 🤨

Chirps are by far the most thoroughly researched communication signal of electric, probably even all fish. But detecting chirps becomes hard when more than one fish is recorded. As a result, most of the research to date analyzes this signal in isolated individuals. This is not good.

To tackle this isse, this package provides a simple toolbox to detect chirps of multiple fish on spectrograms. This enables true quantitative analyses of chirping between freely behaving fish for the first time.
