Abstract

In this paper the development of an online monitoring system is shown in order to track physiological and cognitive condition of crew members of the Concordia Research Station in Antarctica, with specific regard to depression. Follow-up studies were carried out on recorded speech material in such a way that segmental and supra-segmental speech parameters were measured for individual researchers weakly, and the changes of these parameters were detected over time. Two kind of speech were recorded weekly by crew members in their mother tongue: a diary and a tale (“North Wind and The Sun”). An automatic language independent program was used to segment the records in phoneme level for the measurements. Such a way Concordia Speech Databases were constructed. Those acoustic-phonetic parameters were selected for the follow up study at Concordia, which parameters were statistically selected during a research on the base of the analysis of Seasonal Affective Disorder Databases gathered separately in Europe.
