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）是一款新颖的并行多模态（音视频）英式英语语料库，收录了构音障碍者与典型说话者的情感语音数据，为同类型语料库中的首创之作。
该数据库属于诱发式（elicited）情感语料库，涵盖六种基本情感下录制的语音：快乐、悲伤、愤怒、惊讶、恐惧与厌恶，同时还录制了作为基准状态的“中性”语音样本。
构音障碍语音部分收录了4名说话者的语音数据：1名因脑瘫罹患构音障碍的女性说话者，以及3名因帕金森病罹患构音障碍的说话者（2名女性，1名男性）。
典型语音部分则收录了21名典型发育说话者的语音数据（9名女性，12名男性）。
本文详述了该数据库的构建流程，涵盖其设计思路、开发过程、数据采集相关技术细节，以及数据文件说明，并介绍了验证方法。
该数据库已通过主观验证（人类评估）与客观验证（自动识别）两种方式完成校验。
验证结果表明，该数据库可为理解构音障碍群体的情感沟通机制提供重要支撑，同时在构音障碍情感分类研究领域具备极高的应用价值。
