## Welcome!
This is the page for the competition task of the BirdSO Machine Learning Event!

## Overview
There are many distinct features that can distinguish between bird calls, many of which are hard to track with the untrained ear. However, a neural network is very well capable of being able to conduct analysis on up to 61 "genera of spectral features" characteristic of 88 different bird species native to the United Kingdom. 


Your task is to develop a model using machine learning that can accurately associate a given bird call with a bird species, specified in the Data tab above.
