Dataset
2008 Tick1 Audio Corpus
- Documentation:
- This dataset is part of the "tick1" experiment from ESRC grant "Articulation and Coarticulation in the Lower Vocal Tract" with G. Kochanski and J. Coleman as principal investigators. Data is courtesy of the UK's Economics and Social Research Council, derived from project RES-000-23-1094, 7/2005 through 3/2008. When using this data, the appropriate publication to reference is DOI: 10.1121/1.2890742, "What Marks the Beat of Speech?" G. Kochanski and C. Orphanidou, Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, ISSN 0001-4966, Volume 123(5), pages 2780-2791. The files DB.fiat, DBsub.fiat and DBsent.fiat contain metadata describing the recordings. The experimental data itself consists of speech recordings, and they are stored in subdirectories. It also contains hand-checked files that mark the beginning and end of utterances, and hand checked positions for finger taps and metronome ticks. This corpus of data consists partly of short files of repetitive speech: phrases like "Nothing Matters. Nothing Matters. Nothing Matters. ..." (There are 75 different phrases.) The remainder consists of the same phrases (and a few others) spoken in a more standard laboratory phonology context: a randomized list of phrases. It also includes some longer, rhythmic passages from Dr. Suess. The speakers are all speakers of Southern British English. It contains 1308 audio files and totals 2.6 gigabytes of uncompressed audio. There are 14 speakers. More detailed documentation is in the DB.fiat file that contains the bulk of the metadata.
