Welcome to *DAS*
================

*DAS* — short for *Deep Audio Segmenter* — is a tool for annotating song
in audio recordings. At the core of *DAS* is a deep neural network,
implemented in Tensorflow. The network takes single- and multi-channel
audio as an input and returns the probability of finding a particular
song type for each audio sample. *DAS* can be used with a graphical user
interface for loading audio data, annotating song manually, training a
network, and generating annotations on audio. Alternatively, *DAS* can
be used programmatically from the command line, in python notebooks, or
in your own python code via the ``das`` module.
