The details of DEED audio recordings.

The Dysarthric Expressed Emotional Database (DEED) is a novel, parallel multimodal (audio-visual) database of dysarthric and typical emotional speech in British English which is a first of its kind. It is an induced (elicited) emotional database that includes speech recorded in the six basic emotions: “happiness”, “sadness”, “anger”, “surprise”, “fear”, and “disgust”. A “neutral” state has also been recorded as a baseline condition. The dysarthric speech part includes recordings from 4 speakers: one female speaker with dysarthria due to cerebral palsy and 3 speakers with dysarthria due to Parkinson’s disease (2 female and 1 male). The typical speech part includes recordings from 21 typical speakers (9 female and 12 male). This paper describes the collection of the database, covering its design, development, technical information related to the data capture, and description of the data files and presents the validation methodology. The database was validated subjectively (human performance) and objectively (automatic recognition). The achieved results demonstrated that this database will be a valuable resource for understanding emotion communication by people with dysarthria and useful in the research field of dysarthric emotion classification.

构音障碍情感表达数据库（Dysarthric Expressed Emotional Database, DEED）是全球首个针对英式英语构音障碍人群与典型说话人群的并行多模态（音视频）情感语音数据集，具有首创性。该数据集属于诱发式（主动采集）情感库，涵盖六大基础情感的语音录制：快乐、悲伤、愤怒、惊讶、恐惧与厌恶，同时录制了中性状态语音作为基准参照。构音障碍语音部分包含4名受试者的录制数据：1名因脑瘫引发构音障碍的女性受试者，以及3名因帕金森病导致构音障碍的受试者（2名女性、1名男性）。典型语音部分则包含21名典型说话者的录制数据（9名女性、12名男性）。本文详细阐述了该数据集的采集流程，涵盖数据集的设计思路、开发过程、数据采集相关技术细节、数据文件说明，并介绍了验证方法。该数据集已通过主观（人类评估）与客观（自动识别）两种方式完成验证。验证结果表明，本数据集将成为理解构音障碍人群情感交流机制的宝贵资源，同时可有效助力构音障碍情感分类相关研究领域的发展。本数据集遵循知识共享许可协议，可免费用于学术研究，获取链接为：https://sites.google.com/sheffield.ac.uk/deed
