simple-speech-features is a simple, straight-forward Python demonstration for extracting and manipulating acoustic and prosodic features from sound waves based on Praat and Parselmouth. All speech extraction utilities and helper functions are included in feature_extraction_utils.py. The default values for parameters and information in the docstrings are directly from Praat.

1. Clone this repository: git clone https://github.com/uzaymacar/speech-features.git
2. Install Parselmouth: pip install praat-parselmouth
3. Start extracting speech features on your datasets as shown in main.ipynb!
