Dataset description

The VOCAL+ dataset contains voice recordings of patients referred on the NHS 2 week wait (2WW) pathway for suspected head and neck cancer to the ENT Department at Leeds Teaching Hospital NHS Trust. Alongside voice recordings we also present demographic, lifestyle, and symptom data for each patient as well as their diagnosis. Each patient completed nine voice tasks modified from the Consensus Auditory- Perceptual Evaluation of Voice (CAPE-V) framework. This includes two sustained vowels (/a/ and /i/), six sentences: "The blue spot is on the key again.", "How hard did he hit him?", "We were away a year ago.", "We eat eggs every Easter.", "My mama makes lemon muffins.", and "Peter will keep at the peak.", and a picture descripton of the Cookie Theft image. Each patient was recorded simultaniously with two recording devices, an Olympus LS-P1, and a Nokia 110 phone. Recordings for both devices are available.
