Abstract

TalkBank, a CLARIN B Centre, is the host for a collection of multilingual multimodal corpora designed to foster fundamental research in the study of human communication. It contains tens of thousands of audio and video recordings across many languages linked to richly annotated transcriptions, all in the CHAT transcription format. The purpose of the TalkBankDB project is to provide an intuitive on-line interface for researchers to explore TalkBank’s media and transcripts, specify data to be extracted, and pass these data on to statistical programs for further analysis.
