banca and timit need to be in separate packages

Created by: siebenkopf

I know that we have a database interface for the images/videos of BANCA. However, I think that the folder structure inside the audio dataset is not appropriate. I am not sure, why this is the case, and how the audio files are generated in the first place. As it seems (from the protocol files) there are only files for protocol "G", anyways.

I think, it would be a good idea to re-align the data to fit into the desired folder structure, and use bob.db.banca instead.

For timit, I am not sure if we have a database interface. If not, I would suggest to leave it inside bob.bio.spear -- except you think it might be useful outside the bob.bio packages. As far as I remember, the timit dataset was a subset of something, but I did not write the bob.bio.spear package.

I have the same question. Why do we have two definitions for banca?

Just to add more information in this thread;

for the protocol="G", covered in the file structure in bob.bio.spear (https://gitlab.idiap.ch/bob/bob.bio.spear/tree/master/bob/bio/spear/config/database/banca/G) there are 1308 file objects, but for the same protocol in bob.db.bancathere are 6540 file objects.

I suggest to do the following: If no one moves a finger to solve this one, we should delete these file lists. Means that nobody use and cares about it.

Can we remove these file lists from bob.bio.spear. It seems no one cares.

No, I might get back to this someday.

I will remove banca file lists form here because we have bob.db.banca but will keep the file lists for timit.
