Meeting procedures

  1. Report progress on goals from last week
  2. Discuss any blocking issues or strategic decisions (e.g. upcoming scheduled events, code reviews, etc.)
  3. Set new goals for next week

Meeting synopses

6/12/20 Friday GSoC call (10-11:15 Pacific)

Mentor thoughts on process for weekly Friday meetings? Jesse: report on progress, blocking issues Scott: include goals for next week Valentina: also schedule (code) review events

Kunal report: Colab workbook 1 Colab workbook 2

Scott chat links: Pod.Cast documentation Test sets emerging here

How to visualize the model performance? ROC curves Confusion matrices

Diego Q for Kunal: What is difference in performance if mp3 is used instead of WAV? Scott: Two experiment ideas to seek an answer -- (1) stream both HLS and FLAC when SRKWs are next calling, & (2) Go back to WAV files in training (e.g. Pod.Cast rounds) and convert WAV samples to mp3, then re-run model... Ask Val for ideas, too...

**Kunal goals: ** VGG may be best, but also trying ResNet and convolution 2D model Jesse: look at how to make code reusable (e.g. Orca), Kunal will convert from collab to to Python scripts… Valentina: Add markdown cells to document code (including organizing packages), and even images Abhishek: For next notebook, add subsections in notebook and a top-level README

Diego report: Added Bigg’s to classification UI Added option to indicate experience level of labeler Table of labels, including mp3 filename, label, and user experience level

Diego goals: Test GUI with Kunal’s processed data (e.g. put it in S3 bucket) Jesse: include tests (for Flask you can use libraries to mock a post, and ensure something is returned) and embed in continuous integration Abhishek goal: you had chance to look at JS library? Valentina: look into each cloud environment’s app service… Diego: Heroku is easier (Github integration vs ssh from Ubuntu instance), but is more expensive

6/5/20 Friday GSoC call (#1)

**Diego updates: ** -- UI branch w/ J,K,L and no orca categories (bird, ship…) -- SV: send goals for “expert user (SRKW, orca)” to Diego -- Error testing pod.cast - Goal: Will compare w/Valentina - SV: share Akash/Prakruti emails?

Kunal updates: -- Will share notebook with Ketos error -- Goals: -- Why getting error in Ketos (share w/Jesse to document for Fabio/Oliver)

Abhishek: -- keep documenting in the orcasoc repo README!

Val: -- experimenting with edge computing (with Fabio!)

5/20/20 Weekly Wednesday meet-up

Kunal, Val, and Scott discussed Kunal's initial call modeling efforts training with Podcast round 3 set and Val's latest pre-processing approaches.

Scott's list of insights from the discussion New open-source bioacoustic labeling tools should provide guidance about decisions made by domain experts (e.g. when validating predictions in a tool like Podcast and move towards standardization of annotation metadata:

  1. time bounds (fixed duration or variable procedure, start bound time vs signal start time, how much background noise included before/after...) and resolution
  2. frequency bounds and resolution
  3. Whether to exclude calls with clicks, or whistles, or snaps?
  4. What is a sufficient signal to noise ratio to qualify as a call vs a faint call vs a possible call?

Kunal ended with a good question about what to do next to improve his model performance...
