Have you ever wanted to be weird and make animal noises into your computer? Now you can!
What it does
AnimalNoises is a Mathematica program that records you making animal noises and tries to guess which animal you're impersonating. So far, it can support: cows, sheep, goats, cats, dogs, horses, chickens, monkeys.
How I built it
We recorded fellow DandyHacks hackers trying to make animal noises. We took this data, and using Mathematica's state-of-the-art machine learning libraries, trained a logistic regression classifier. Under the hood, Mathematica is doing principal component analysis and dimensionality reduction of the sound data to try to interpret what makes each animal unique.
Challenges I ran into
Sometimes the program mixes up sheep and goats, and cows and cats. It's still also very sensitive to background noise.
What's next for AnimalNoises
A website so it can classify your animal noises wherever you are (e.g. in a library)
