birdnetR: Deep Learning for Automated (Bird) Sound Identification

Use 'BirdNET', a state-of-the-art deep learning classifier, to automatically identify (bird) sounds. Analyze bioacoustic datasets without any computer science background using a pre-trained model or a custom trained classifier. Predict bird species occurrence based on location and week of the year.
