RAVDESS Emotional speech audio

**Ryerson Audio-Visual Database of Emotional Speech and Song (RAVDESS)**
------------

Speech audio-only files (16bit, 48kHz .wav) from the RAVDESS. Full dataset of speech and song, audio and video (24.8 GB) available from [Zenodo][1]. Construction and perceptual validation of the RAVDESS is described in our Open Access [paper in PLoS ONE][2].

Check out our [Kaggle Song emotion dataset][3].

**Files**

This portion of the RAVDESS contains 1440 files: 60 trials per actor x 24 actors = 1440. The RAVDESS contains 24 professional actors (12 female, 12 male), vocalizing two lexically-matched statements in a neutral North American accent. Speech emotions includes calm, happy, sad, angry, fearful, surprise, and disgust expressions. Each expression is produced at two levels of emotional intensity (normal, strong), with an additional neutral expression.

**File naming convention**

Each of the 1440 files has a unique filename. The filename consists of a 7-part numerical identifier (e.g., 03-01-06-01-02-01-12.wav). These identifiers define the stimulus characteristics:

*Filename identifiers*

- Modality (01 = full-AV, 02 = video-only, 03 = audio-only).

- Vocal channel (01 = speech, 02 = song).

- Emotion (01 = neutral, 02 = calm, 03 = happy, 04 = sad, 05 = angry, 06 = fearful, 07 = disgust, 08 = surprised).

- Emotional intensity (01 = normal, 02 = strong). NOTE: There is no strong intensity for the 'neutral' emotion.

- Statement (01 = "Kids are talking by the door", 02 = "Dogs are sitting by the door").

- Repetition (01 = 1st repetition, 02 = 2nd repetition).

- Actor (01 to 24. Odd numbered actors are male, even numbered actors are female).

*Filename example: 03-01-06-01-02-01-12.wav*

1. Audio-only (03)
2. Speech (01)
3. Fearful (06)
4. Normal intensity (01)
5. Statement "dogs" (02)
6. 1st Repetition (01)
7. 12th Actor (12)
Female, as the actor ID number is even.

**文件**

RAVDESS的此部分包含1440个文件：每位演员60个试验 x 24位演员 = 1440。RAVDESS包含24位专业演员（12位女性，12位男性），以中性北美口音发音两个词汇上匹配的陈述。语音情感包括平静、快乐、悲伤、愤怒、恐惧、惊讶和厌恶的表达。每种表情以两种情感强度级别（正常、强烈）呈现，另附一个中性表情。

**文件命名规范**

这1440个文件中的每一个都有一个唯一的文件名。文件名由7部分数字标识符组成（例如，03-01-06-01-02-01-12.wav）。这些标识符定义了刺激特征：

*文件标识符*

- 模式（01 = 全视听，02 = 视频仅，03 = 音频仅）。
- 语音通道（01 = 语音，02 = 歌曲）。
- 情感（01 = 中性，02 = 平静，03 = 快乐，04 = 悲伤，05 = 愤怒，06 = 恐惧，07 = 厌恶，08 = 惊讶）。
- 情感强度（01 = 正常，02 = 强烈）。注意：'中性'情感没有强烈强度。
