emuR - Main package of the EMU Speech Database Management System

The emuR package provides the next iteration of the EMU Speech Database Management System with database management, data extraction, data preparation and data visualization facilities. It also contains a server that is intended to host databases in the emuDB format (see vignette('emuDB_intro')) to the EMU-webApp (http://ips-lmu.github.io/EMU-webApp/). The querying of annotations is performed using EMU's own EQL2 (EMU Query Language Version 2).

This package is part of the next iteration of the EMU Speech Database Management System which aims to be as close to an all-in-one solution for generating, manipulating, querying, analyzing and managing speech databases as possible. For an overview of the system please visit this URL: http://ips-lmu.github.io/EMU.html.
