CREATE — Create new databank
This program is used to create a new databank and to write capacity
records that contain default values where necessary. The databank
is organized as one single file that holds speech parameters,
spectra, as well as psychopathology score. The standard
configuration allows one to store up 20,000 case records. The
databank organozation can be either "direct" or "indirect". In the
latter case all databank modifications are on a databank copy rather
than on the original data. The modifications can be made "permanent"
through an explicit call of program SAVE.

Fig. 01: The sensitivity of the human ear depends on frequency
with pronounced non-linear characteristics. The highest
sensitivity lies in the interval between 1 kHz and 5 kHz. By
contrast, computerized approaches to quantifying the nonverbal
component of human speech rely on a "flat" frequency response
curve that enables cross-comparisons between subjects.
