PlanArt data and location specification

Overview

EMATviewer uses the MView files created for the data gathered by the PlanArt project.  Each of the PlanArt MView files contain the EMA position data and the audio data that was gathered during the presentation of a slide containing text or a picture to the subject. The directory structure for mview files should mirror that of the PlanArt/SessionData directory on DataStore. The data can be copied to a local folder to speed up access. Only the MView files are required, so a copy of the other data files is not needed. An MView only copy of the PlanArt data is available on DataStore in the folder PlanArt/MView-SessionData  There are variations of the directory structure which reflect the type of data gathered. (i.e. box, finger, lip etc) Typically the Mview Files will be located in a sub-folder with a similar structure to this example:

\R00115_S1_S2_SP07\byslide\MView\Mic-LX\16KHz

The filename for the Mview files have the following format:  mview + slide number + repeat number + .mat  i.e. mview0110.mat

Where slide number is the number assigned to the presented slide and repeat number is the number of times the slide was re-presented to the subject for this version of the recording, i.e. in the above, the slide number is 11 and the repeat number is 0

 

Columns in the data spreadsheet

These are the required and optional columns used in the spreadsheet for PlanArt data. The columns can be arranged in any order within the spreadsheet. Other columns may also be present, if the extra column name is not used for outputting data then it will be ignored.

For an example of the required and optional columns see the PlanArt-example-data-spreadsheet.xlsx

Required Columns

Column Name
Description
  Type
ExperimentID The ID of the experiment, i.e. R00115_S1_S2_SP07   text
Filename The slide number and repeat number for the filename, leading zeros can be omitted, i.e a value of 112 would identify the file mview0112.mat   number
Use Use or Ignore the item when examining the data, Set the value to 1 if you want to use the item, set the value to 0 to ignore the item   number
Beg The time in seconds when the item starts within the data file   number
End The time in seconds when the item ends within the data file   number

Optional Columns

Column Name Description
  Type
Target Text to be displayed with the signal, such as the text of the utterance.   text
Task The name of the task being performed for this item. This is used for filtering the items by specific tasks.   text

 

MView file format

The PlanArt MView files use Matlab version 7.3 format which is based on HDF5 with a Matlab structure

The MView files contain a mixture of the following data items:

Item
Description
Audio The audio waveform
LX The laryngograph waveform
Text The text presented in the slide
finger finger tip EMA position data
pick finger pick EMA position data
TB Tongue Back EMA position data
TM Tongue Mid EMA position data
TT Tongue Tip EMA position data
UJ Upper Jaw EMA position data
UL Upper Lip EMA position data
LL Lower Lip EMA position data
LJ Lower Jaw EMA position data
