librosa.display.waveplot(np.array(f),sr=22050)-----AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'display'

Question

Referring to this link: https://aqibsaeed.github.io/2016-09-03-urban-sound-classification-part-1/, I am trying to make the same waveplot figure, however,i run the code through .py, there is the error:

(tensorflow) yyydeMacBook-Pro:~ yyy$ python /Users/yyy/Desktop/1.py 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/yyy/Desktop/1.py", line 82, in <module>
    plot_waves(sound_names,raw_sounds)
  File "/Users/yyy/Desktop/1.py", line 42, in plot_waves
    librosa.display.waveplot(np.array(f),sr=22050)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'display'

Solution 1

From this github issue I read that it is now necessary to import librosa.display.

Solution 2

just import the display

import librosa.display
plt.figure(figsize=(12, 4))
librosa.display.waveplot(data, sr=sampling_rate)

Solution 3

Because of the changes in version 0.6.0 of librosa you are getting those errors. I have fixed all the issues in http://aqibsaeed.github.io/2016-09-03-urban-sound-classification-part-1/ and made it work on Python 3, librosa=0.6.0

import glob
import os
import librosa
import librosa.display
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import tensorflow as tf
from matplotlib.pyplot import specgram
%matplotlib inline

def load_sound_files(file_paths):
    raw_sounds = []
    for fp in file_paths:
        X,sr = librosa.load(fp)
        raw_sounds.append(X)
    return raw_sounds

def plot_waves(sound_names,raw_sounds):
    i = 1
    #fig = plt.figure(figsize=(25,60), dpi = 900)
    fig = plt.figure(figsize=(25,60))
    for n,f in zip(sound_names,raw_sounds):
        plt.subplot(10,1,i)
        librosa.display.waveplot(np.array(f),sr=22050)
        plt.title(n.title())
        i += 1
    plt.suptitle("Figure 1: Waveplot",x=0.5, y=0.915,fontsize=18)
    plt.show()

        plt.subplot(10,1,i)

        plt.title(n.title())
        i += 1

        D = librosa.core.amplitude_to_db(np.abs(librosa.stft(f))**2, ref=np.max)
        librosa.display.specshow(D,x_axis='time' ,y_axis='log')
        plt.title(n.title())
        i += 1
    plt.suptitle("Figure 3: Log power spectrogram",x=0.5, y=0.915,fontsize=18)
    plt.show()


sound_file_paths = ["57320-0-0-7.wav","24074-1-0-3.wav","15564-2-0-1.wav","31323-3-0-1.wav",

raw_sounds = load_sound_files(sound_file_paths)

plot_log_power_specgram(sound_names,raw_sounds)

Solution 4

If you are running librosa 0.9.0 you will run into following Error using waveplot:

AttributeError: module 'librosa.display' has no attribute 'waveplot'

instead: import librosa.display and use waveshow

path = "sample.wav"
data, sampling_rate = librosa.load(path)
librosa.display.waveshow(data, sr=sampling_rate)

Welcome to Stack Overflow, answering questions here is good. But a good answer is more than just a few lines of code. Please use the edit link below your answer to add an explanation of why this answers the question.

Now latest error is, module 'librosa.display' has no attribute 'waveplot'. Its fix is to use waveshow instead of waveplot.
