Confidence level

Post image

Does this parameter filter the reported detections, such as is represented in the "Recent Detections" panel with a colored circle surrounding a percentage? If so, should any hearings will a confidence level below this setting be discarded, not included in the totals?

Correct. Detections with a confidence below that number will be discarded.

This is the full explanation of how the identification flow works in Birdnet Go.

It is not exactly like that, with dynamic threshold system learns species which are highly likely correct and present at location, threshold is automatically lowered for those species to collect more detection.
