On this page you will find instructions and manuals on how you can
annotate the fruitcart corpus.
Specification Manual for version 19 can be
read here. This
manual is constantly being updated and can be regenerated from your
anvil menu options: tools->create coding manual.
Click here for specificiation 33,
file.
You can update the specification you are working with on anvil by
opening your .anvil file with a text editor, and change the path
We listed some general rules for
annotation. Here they are. If you feel
we can add/modify some of them, please let me
know. Also here is a map with the names
of the regions the speakers will be referring to.
You are welcome to go over more details on the specification
scheme for annotation by reading
this paper.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR SEGMENTING
Below you will find the .mp4 videos to be segmented according to the
intervals given in the Segments column. Please follow this intervals
since the video sound needs to match the transcripts in the .anvil
files. From the .mp4, you must generate a .avi CINEPAK format with
uncompressed speech. This is important. If you work in Windows,
you can achieve this by using QuickTimePro. Mac users can segment
videos with MPEG Streamclip.
After segmenting each interval, take a
moment and verify that the .avi video you create matches the .anvil
interval, the written transcript in the .anvil, and that the
.avi video is playable in the Anvil program in your machine.
Naming your files. Please name the segmented files as follows:
subjX-YYYY.avi, where X is the subject number (1-12), and
YYYY is the start time interval.
Submitting your files. You can burn files onto a CD which I
can give you or you can log in as a guest in the ftp I've set up in my
local computer. Let me know which one you prefer and I'll give you
more instructions on this.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR ANNOTATION
For training purposes, you can use the .anvil-example to guide your
own annotation process. The .anvil-empty contains no annotation, only
the time aligned transcript. If you find that the transcript and the
video are not time aligned (i.e. the words do not match the video
speech), please let me know before start annotating.
Moving a Track in Anvil. You can offset the transcript track, before annotation,
by going to Edit->"Offset Track". There you enter the number of
seconds (positive or negative) by which you want the track to be
moved.
Naming your files. Please name your annotation files as follows:
subjX-YYYY-URNAME.anvil, where X is the subject number (1-12),
YYYY is the start time interval, and URNAME is your first name. You can
email me the .anvil file.
