false | but but Yeah , it 's a | QMSum_78 |
false | Mm - hmm. OK. But then there 's another thing that also Thilo 's involved with , which is , um OK , and and also Da - Dave Gelbart. So there 's this this problem of and w and so we had this meeting. Th - the also Adam , before the the before you went away. Uh we , um regarding the representation of overlaps , because at present , um , because of the limitations of th the interface we 're using , overlaps are , uh , not being encoded by the transcribers in as complete and , uh , detailed a way as it might be , and as might be desired I think would be desired in the corpus ultimately. | QMSum_78 |
false | Mm - hmm. | QMSum_78 |
false | So we don't have start and end points at each point where there 's an overlap. We just have the the overlaps encoded in a simple bin. Well , OK. So @ @ the limits of the over of of the interface are such that we were at this meeting we were entertaining how we might either expand the the interface or find other tools which already do what would be useful. Because what would ultimately be , um , ideal in my my view and I think I mean , I had the sense that it was consensus , is that , um , a thorough - going musical score notation would be the best way to go. Because you can have multiple channels , there 's a single time - line , it 's very clear , flexible , and all those nice things. | QMSum_78 |
false | Mm - hmm. | QMSum_78 |
false | OK. So , um , um , I spoke I had a meeting with Dave Gelbart on on and he had , uh , excellent ideas on how the interface could be modified to to do this kind of representation. But , um , he in the meantime you were checking into the existence of already , um , existing interfaces which might already have these properties. So , do you wanna say something about that ? | QMSum_78 |
false | Yes. Um , I talked with , uh , Munich guys from from Ludwi - Ludwig Maximilians University , who do a lot of transcribing and transliterations. | QMSum_78 |
false | Mm - hmm. | QMSum_78 |
false | And they basically said they have they have , uh , a tool they developed themselves and they can't give away , uh , f it 's too error - prone , and had it 's not supported , a a a and | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_78 |
false | But , um , Susanne Bur - Burger , who is at se CMU , he wa who was formally at in Munich and w and is now at with CMU , she said she has something which she uses to do eight channels , uh , trans transliterations , eight channels simultaneously , | QMSum_78 |
false | Excuse me. | QMSum_78 |
false | but it 's running under Windows. | QMSum_78 |
false | Under Windows. | QMSum_78 |
false | So I 'm not sure if if if we can use it. | QMSum_78 |
false | Mm - hmm. | QMSum_78 |
false | She said she would give it to us. | QMSum_78 |
false | Mm - hmm. | QMSum_78 |
false | It wouldn't be a problem. And I 've got some some kind of manual down in my office. | QMSum_78 |
false | Well , maybe we should get it and if it 's good enough we 'll arrange Windows machines to be available. | QMSum_78 |
true | Yeah. | QMSum_78 |
false | Mm - hmm. We could uh , potentially so. | QMSum_78 |
false | So. | QMSum_78 |
false | I also wanted to be sure I mean , I 've I 've seen the this this is called Praat , PRAAT , which I guess means spee speech in Dutch or something. | QMSum_78 |
false | Yep. | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah , but then I 'm not sure that 's the right thing for us. | QMSum_78 |
false | But In terms of it being Windows versus | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_78 |
false | No , no. Praat isn't Praat 's multi - platform. | QMSum_78 |
false | But I 'm just wondering , is ? | QMSum_78 |
false | No. No , Praat Yeah. Yeah. | QMSum_78 |
false | Oh ! I see. | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_78 |
false | Oh , I see. So Praat may not be | QMSum_78 |
false | That 's not Praat. It 's called " trans transedit " I think. | QMSum_78 |
false | It 's a different one. | QMSum_78 |
false | The the , uh the tool from from Susanne. | QMSum_78 |
false | I see. Oh , I see. OK. OK. Alright. | QMSum_78 |
false | The other thing , uh , to keep in mind , uh I mean , we 've been very concerned to get all this rolling so that we would actually have data , | QMSum_78 |
false | Mmm , yeah. | QMSum_78 |
false | but , um , I think our outside sponsor is actually gonna kick in | QMSum_78 |
false | Mm - hmm. | QMSum_78 |
false | and ultimately that path will be smoothed out. So I don't know if we have a long - term need to do lots and lots of transcribing. I think we had a very quick need to get something out and we 'd like to be able to do some later because just it 's inter it 's interesting. But as far a you know , uh , with with any luck we 'll be able to wind down the larger project. | QMSum_78 |
false | Oh. | QMSum_78 |
false | But you s | QMSum_78 |
false | What our decision was is that we 'll go ahead with what we have with a not very fine time scale on the overlaps. | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_78 |
false | Right. Yeah. | QMSum_78 |
false | And and do what we can later to clean that up if we need to. | QMSum_78 |
false | Mm - hmm. | QMSum_78 |
false | Right. | QMSum_78 |
false | And and I was just thinking that , um , if it were possible to bring that in , like , you know , this week , then when they 're encoding the overlaps it would be nice for them to be able to specify when you know , the start points and end points of overlaps. | QMSum_78 |
false | Uh - huh. | QMSum_78 |
false | uh Th - they 're making really quick progress. | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah. That 's great. | QMSum_78 |
false | And , um , so my my goal was w m my charge was to get eleven hours by the end of the month. And it 'll be I 'm I 'm I 'm clear that we 'll be able to do that. | QMSum_78 |
false | That 's great. | QMSum_78 |
false | And did you , uh , forward Morgan Brian 's thing ? | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_78 |
false | I sent it to , um who did I send that to ? I sent it to a list and I thought I sent it to the e to the local list. | QMSum_78 |
false | Meeting Recorder. | QMSum_78 |
false | Oh , you did ? OK. So you probably did get that. | QMSum_78 |
false | You saw that ? So Brian did tell me that in fact what you said , that , uh that our that they are making progress and that he 's going that they 're going he 's gonna check the f the output of the first transcription and and | QMSum_78 |
false | I mean , basically it 's it 's all the difference in the world. I mean , basically he 's he 's on it now. | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_78 |
false | Oh , that 's this is a new development. | QMSum_78 |
false | So so so this is so i it 'll happen. | QMSum_78 |
false | OK. Super. Super. OK. Great. | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah. I mean , basically it 's just saying that one of our one of our best people is on it , | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_78 |
false | you know , who just doesn't happen to be here anymore. Someone else pays him. So | QMSum_78 |
false | But about the need for transcription , | QMSum_78 |
false | Isn't that great ? | QMSum_78 |
false | I mean , don't we didn't we previously decide that the IBM transcripts would have to be checked anyway and possibly augmented ? | QMSum_78 |
false | So. Yeah. | QMSum_78 |
false | Yes. That 's true. | QMSum_78 |
false | So , I think having a good tool is worth something no matter what. | QMSum_78 |
false | Mm - hmm. | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah. S OK. That 's that 's a good point. | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah , and Dave Gelbart did volunteer , | QMSum_78 |
false | Good. | QMSum_78 |
false | and since he 's not here , I 'll repeat it to at least modify Transcriber , which , if we don't have something else that works , I think that 's a pretty good way of going. | QMSum_78 |
false | Mmm. | QMSum_78 |
false | Mm - hmm. | QMSum_78 |
false | And we discussed on some methods to do it. My approach originally , and I 've already hacked on it a little bit it was too slow because I was trying to display all the waveforms. But he pointed out that you don't really have to. I think that 's a good point. | QMSum_78 |
false | Mm - hmm. | QMSum_78 |
false | Mm - hmm. | QMSum_78 |
false | That if you just display the mix waveform and then have a user interface for editing the different channels , that 's perfectly sufficient. | QMSum_78 |
false | Hmm. | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah , exactly. And just keep those things separate. And and , um , Dan Ellis 's hack already allows them to be able to display different waveforms to clarify overlaps and things , | QMSum_78 |
false | No. They can only display one , | QMSum_78 |
false | so that 's already | QMSum_78 |
false | but they can listen to different ones. | QMSum_78 |
false | Oh , yes , but Well , uh , yes , but what I mean is that , uh , from the transcriber 's perspective , uh , those two functions are separate. And Dan Ellis 's hack handles the , um , choice the ability to choose different waveforms from moment to moment. | QMSum_78 |
false | But only to listen to , not to look at. | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_78 |
false | Um | QMSum_78 |
false | The waveform you 're looking at doesn't change. | QMSum_78 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_78 |
false | That 's true. | QMSum_78 |
