Sharing data with the academic community
August 19, 2020 — We would like to share with the community the data we have been collecting. Because the data is sensitive, we have to share this through a formal Data Access Agreement which can be signed by institutionally authorized signatures. The data, as per the agreement, can be shared for academic research purposes only .
At the moment the data we have preprocessed and are able to share is the data described in the paper published in ACM KDD, also available publicly at arXiv. Please cite this paper when you use the data in your publications.
This data contains 459 cough and breathe samples from 378 users (from Web and Android applications until 22 May, 2020). We have carefully checked samples to guarantee the quality of the data. We have collected voice, symptoms and other metadata, but at this stage we only share cough and breathing as we used in the KDD paper. First of all, there were 62 users who said they had tested positive for COVID-19 (in the last 14 days or before that) contributing 141 cough and breathing samples, with 54 of these samples from users who reported dry or wet cough. In addition, we define non-COVID users as those with a clean medical history, who had never smoked, had not tested positive for COVID-19. These users contributed 298 samples with 32 samples declaring cough as a symptom. Finally, we also filtered asthma with cough, the users who have asthma, had not tested positive for COVID-19, and had a cough; these gave us 20 samples. More processing details can be found on our paper above.
If you are interested in obtaining the data please email covid-19-sounds@cl.cam.ac.uk. A data sharing agreement template will be sent to you to be signed by the authorized signatory of your institution and then we will be able to share the data with you.
