# How to run batch processing
|
|
|
|
This guide shows practical command patterns for directory-based and file-list
|
|
processing runs.
|
|
|
|
Use it after you already know which input mode you want and need concrete
|
|
command templates for a repeatable batch run.
|
|
|
|
## Process a directory
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
batdetect2 process directory \
|
|
path/to/model.ckpt \
|
|
path/to/audio_dir \
|
|
path/to/outputs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use this when BatDetect2 should discover the audio files for you.
|
|
|
|
## Process a file list
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
batdetect2 process file_list \
|
|
path/to/model.ckpt \
|
|
path/to/audio_files.txt \
|
|
path/to/outputs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use this when another part of your workflow already produced the exact recording
|
|
list to process.
|
|
|
|
## Process a dataset config
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
batdetect2 process dataset \
|
|
path/to/model.ckpt \
|
|
path/to/annotation_set.json \
|
|
path/to/outputs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use this when your project already has a `soundevent` annotation set and you
|
|
want to extract unique recording paths from it.
|
|
|
|
## Useful options
|
|
|
|
- `--batch-size` to control throughput.
|
|
- `--workers` to set data-loading parallelism.
|
|
- `--format` to select output format.
|
|
- `--inference-config` to control clipping and loader behavior.
|
|
- `--outputs-config` to control serialization and output transforms.
|
|
- `--detection-threshold` to override the detection threshold for a run.
|
|
|
|
## Practical workflow
|
|
|
|
For large runs:
|
|
|
|
1. test the command on a small reviewed subset,
|
|
2. lock the config files and command shape,
|
|
3. write outputs to a dedicated directory per run,
|
|
4. record the checkpoint, config paths, and thresholds used.
