Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I access AMIDA corpus?
Just login or register here for free and go to "Access AMIDA corpus" section of the menu. - Why do I need to register?
We need to be able to argue that creating the data was time and money well-spent, and so we need enough information to make that case. - Where is the documentation?
Full documentation of the corpus is available from Documentation section of the menu. - What annotations have been performed?
All the documentation about the annotation are visible in the Documentation section. - Can I download data?
Yes. First you need to login or register here for free and go to Download section. This page can be used to download everything except high resolution videos - that is, audio, reduced video, transcription and annotations. The chooser allows you to specify what parts of the data you want, to reduce the download size. - Is there a manifest of the download files?
You can find out what files should be in your download by looking at the wget script you used to obtain them - it lists each file separately. View it in any text editor. Some files that you might be expecting for a complete corpus might not be present; the HTML page you reach after asking for the download wget script explains any omissions. - Can I download everything there is?
No. The full corpus contains high resolution videos that can only be obtained by requesting a firewire hard disk drive. Information about this is available from here for which you need to login or register here for free. - I can't find the transcriptions - where are they?
They're in with the annotations, in a zip file on the Download page. - What consent form have meeting participants signed?
The original text of the AMI and AMIDA consent form is in 041119-AMI_Meetings_Corpus_Consent_Formjp.pdf. - How can I comment or ask questions?
