## Installation

If you want to perform pitch estimation using a pretrained FCNF0++ model, run
`pip install penn`

If you want to train or use your own models, run
`pip install penn[train]`


## Inference

Perform inference using FCNF0++

```
import penn

# Load audio
audio, sample_rate = torchaudio.load('test/assets/gershwin.wav')

# Here we'll use a 10 millisecond hopsize
hopsize = .01

# Provide a sensible frequency range given your domain and model
fmin = 30.
fmax = 1000.

# Choose a gpu index to use for inference. Set to None to use cpu.
gpu = 0

# If you are using a gpu, pick a batch size that doesn't cause memory errors
# on your gpu
batch_size = 2048

# Select a checkpoint to use for inference. Selecting None will
# download and use FCNF0++ pretrained on MDB-stem-synth and PTDB
checkpoint = None

# Centers frames at hopsize / 2, 3 * hopsize / 2, 5 * hopsize / 2, ...
center = 'half-hop'

# (Optional) Linearly interpolate unvoiced regions below periodicity threshold
interp_unvoiced_at = .065

# (Optional) Select a decoding method. One of ['argmax', 'pyin', 'viterbi'].
decoder = 'viterbi'

# Infer pitch and periodicity
pitch, periodicity = penn.from_audio(
    audio,
    sample_rate,
    hopsize=hopsize,
    fmin=fmin,
    fmax=fmax,
    checkpoint=checkpoint,
    batch_size=batch_size,
    center=center,
    decoder=decoder,
    interp_unvoiced_at=interp_unvoiced_at,
    gpu=gpu)
```

Note that pitch estimation is performed independently on each frame of audio. Then, a _decoding_ step occurs, which may or may not be computed independently on each frame. Most often, Viterbi decoding is used (as in, e.g., PYIN and CREPE). However, Viterbi decoding is slow. We made a fast Viterbi decoder called [torbi](https://github.com/maxrmorrison/torbi), which [we are working on adding to PyTorch](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/121160). Until `torbi` is integrated into PyTorch (or otherwise made pip-installable), it is recommended to use the `dev` branch of `penn`, which uses `torbi` decoding by default, but is not pip-installable. Our paper [_Fine-Grained and Interpretable Neural Speech Editing_](https://www.maxrmorrison.com/sites/promonet/) introduces and demonstrates the efficacy of `torbi` for pitch decoding.

## Training

### Download

`python -m penn.data.download`

Downloads and uncompresses the `mdb` and `ptdb` datasets used for training.


### Preprocess

`python -m penn.data.preprocess --config <config>`

Converts each dataset to a common format on disk ready for training. You
can optionally pass a configuration file to override the default configuration.


### Partition

`python -m penn.partition`

Generates `train`, `valid`, and `test` partitions for `mdb` and `ptdb`.
Partitioning is deterministic given the same random seed. You do not need to
run this step, as the original partitions are saved in
`penn/assets/partitions`.


### Train

`python -m penn.train --config <config> --gpu <gpu>`

Trains a model according to a given configuration on the `mdb` and `ptdb`
datasets.


### Monitor

You can monitor training via `tensorboard`.

```
tensorboard --logdir runs/ --port <port> --load_fast true
```

To use the `torchutil` notification system to receive notifications for long
jobs (download, preprocess, train, and evaluate), set the
`PYTORCH_NOTIFICATION_URL` environment variable to a supported webhook as
explained in [the Apprise documentation](https://pypi.org/project/apprise/).


## Evaluation

### Evaluate

```
python -m penn.evaluate \
    --config <config> \
    --checkpoint <checkpoint> \
    --gpu <gpu>
```

Evaluate a model. `<checkpoint>` is the checkpoint file to evaluate and `<gpu>`
is the GPU index.


### Plot

```
python -m penn.plot.density \
    --config <config> \
    --true_datasets <true_datasets> \
    --inference_datasets <inference_datasets> \
    --output_file <output_file> \
    --checkpoint <checkpoint> \
    --gpu <gpu>
```

Plot the data distribution and inferred distribution for a given dataset and
save to a jpg file.

```
python -m penn.plot.logits \
    --config <config> \
    --audio_file <audio_file> \
    --output_file <output_file> \
    --checkpoint <checkpoint> \
    --gpu <gpu>
```

Plot the pitch posteriorgram of an audio file and save to a jpg file.

```
python -m penn.plot.threshold \
    --names <names> \
    --evaluations <evaluations> \
    --output_file <output_file>
```

Plot the periodicity performance (voiced/unvoiced F1) over mdb and ptdb as a
function of the voiced/unvoiced threshold. `names` are the plot labels to give
each evaluation. `evaluations` are the names of the evaluations to plot.
