Voice Analysis Corpus Foundation
Summary
Established CORPUS-001 as the formal root artifact for the Voice Analysis research framework.
The corpus already existed as part of Experiment 001 documentation, but it had not yet been represented as a first-class research artifact.
Work Completed
Created:
- docs/research/voice-analysis/corpus/CORPUS-001.md
The artifact documents:
- Source material
- Collection method
- Normalization process
- Corpus statistics
- Corpus fingerprint
- Stable source identifiers
- Corpus limitations
- Relationship to Experiment 001
Key Finding
The research foundation was further along than expected.
The corpus processing, normalization, identifiers, and fingerprinting had already been completed during Experiment 001.
The missing piece was formalizing the corpus as the root artifact in the research model.
Artifact Relationship
The research chain is now:
CORPUS-001 | v EXP-001 | v OBS-001 | v EVID-001 | v HYP-001 | v VAL-001
Existing observation, evidence, hypothesis, and validation artifacts were already referencing CORPUS-001, so no migration was required.
Lessons Learned
The artifact model helped identify that the issue was not missing research work, but missing structure.
Promoting existing research outputs into formal artifacts should happen before creating additional analysis.
Next Steps
Continue migrating existing Experiment 001 outputs into the formal Voice Analysis artifact lifecycle.
Prioritize existing observations with the highest potential to contribute to the first Voice Model.
