GailBot, the automated transcription system for Conversation Analysis, was recently featured by @TuftsEngineer. Thank you to my collaborators for their continued support - we hope to continue to develop this tool.
Professor JP de Ruiter and Muhammad Umair, E21, have developed an automated transcription system that captures speech features like rate and laughter in conversation. The computer system provides a faster and more accurate automated transcription process. bit.ly/3Srzmjc
@TheRealMUmair wrote GailBot v. 0.0.0.1 as a rising sophomore (!!). GailBot v. 1.0 was just published! It's a paralanguage-to-text system - it can transcribe things like pauses/gaps, overlaps, etc. It's also written so y'all can add your own plugins. Tutorials/deets to come :)
For those of you interested in our GailBot software, here is a great demo created by @therealjmertens. sites.tufts.edu/hilab/2022/05/…
