This function applies the "The INTERSPEECH 2016 Computational Paralinguistics Challenge: Deception, Sincerity & Native Language" ComParE (Weninger et al. 2013) to a portion of a recording.

Usage

ComParE_2016(listOfFiles, beginTime = 0, endTime = 0, explicitExt = "ocp")

Arguments

listOfFiles

The full path to the sound file.

beginTime

The starting time of the section of the sound files that should be analysed.

endTime

The end time of the section of the sound files that should be analysed.

explicitExt

The file extension of the slice file where the results should be stored.

Value

A list of 6 373 acoustic values, with the names as reported by openSMILE. Please consult the (Weninger et al. 2013) for a description of the features.

Details

The ComParE feature set consists of of 6 373 static acoustic features resulting from the computation of various functionals over low-level descriptor features, and is applied by this function using the openSMILE (Eyben et al. 2010; Jaimes et al. 2013) acoustic feature extraction library.
