r'''Dynamic programming beat tracker.
Beats are detected in three stages, following the method of [1]_:
1. Measure onset strength
2. Estimate tempo from onset correlation
3. Pick peaks in onset strength approximately consistent with estimated
tempo

Parameters
----------
y : np.ndarray [shape=(n,)] or None
audio time series
sr : number > 0 [scalar]
sampling rate of `y`
onset_envelope : np.ndarray [shape=(n,)] or None
(optional) pre-computed onset strength envelope.
hop_length : int > 0 [scalar]
number of audio samples between successive `onset_envelope` values
start_bpm : float > 0 [scalar]
initial guess for the tempo estimator (in beats per minute)
tightness : float [scalar]
tightness of beat distribution around tempo
trim : bool [scalar]
trim leading/trailing beats with weak onsets
bpm : float [scalar]
(optional) If provided, use `bpm` as the tempo instead of
estimating it from `onsets`.
units : {'frames', 'samples', 'time'}
The units to encode detected beat events in.
By default, 'frames' are used.
Returns
-------
tempo : float [scalar, non-negative]
estimated global tempo (in beats per minute)
beats : np.ndarray [shape=(m,)]
estimated beat event locations in the specified units
(default is frame indices)
.. note::
If no onset strength could be detected, beat_tracker estimates 0 BPM
and returns an empty list.
Raises
------
ParameterError
if neither `y` nor `onset_envelope` are provided
or if `units` is not one of 'frames', 'samples', or 'time'
