CLI Menu Options
When running sse <config.json> without --auto or --validate, an interactive menu appears.
Menu Display
The menu shows:
- Welcome message with version
- Device information (CPU/GPU)
- Configuration settings table
- Current storage state (✅ Present, ❌ Missing, ⚪ Not configured)
- Available actions
warning
Remember to Quit before loading the .h5 file into the visualisation module.
Main Actions
Run all
Execute all processing steps in sequence:
- Extractions
- Aggregations
- Reductions
- Computations
- Autoclusters
- Metrics
- Trajectories
- Relative trajectories
Individual Processing Steps
Run extractions
- Extract features from audio files using configured extractors
- Generates raw embeddings and timestamps
Run aggregations
- Aggregate extracted data into time windows
- Creates intervals with integration periods
Run reductions
- Perform dimensionality reduction (UMAP/PCA)
- Prepares data for visualisation
Run computations
- Compute embeddings and distance matrices
- Used for clustering and analysis
Run autoclusters
- Automatic clustering using HDBSCAN
- Generates cluster labels
Run computations
- Generate mean distance matrix (MDM) from reduced/embedded data
- Iteration count improves UMAP stability (PCA/embeddings use single pass)
Run metrics
- Calculate statistics and analysis metrics
- Includes diversity indices and temporal patterns
Run trajectories
- Trace paths through reduced space
- Shows movement patterns over time
Run relative trajectories
- Calculate distances from reference points
- Compares trajectories relative to baseline
Export Options
Export dataframe as .csv
- Export interval data as CSV file
- Useful for external analysis in Excel/R/Python
Export computations as .npy
- Export embedding computations in NumPy format
- For custom analysis or visualisation
Export mean distances matrix as .npy
- Export distance matrix in NumPy format
- For custom clustering or analysis
Quit
Exit the menu and close the application safely.
