inflections {warbleR} | R Documentation |
Count number of inflections in a frequency contour
Description
inflections
counts the number of inflections in a frequency contour (or any time series)
Usage
inflections(X = NULL, parallel = 1, pb = TRUE)
Arguments
X |
data frame with the columns for "sound.files" (sound file name), "selec" (unique identifier for each selection) and columns for each of the frequency values of the contours. No other columns should be included. |
parallel |
Numeric. Controls whether parallel computing is applied. It specifies the number of cores to be used. Default is 1 (i.e. no parallel computing). |
pb |
Logical argument to control progress bar and messages. Default is |
Details
The function counts the number of inflections in a frequency contour.
Value
A data frame with 3 columns: "sound.files", "selec" and "infls" (number of inflections).
