abstract: >
TonalityPrint is a specialized single-speaker speech corpus designed
to enable exploration of fine-tuning functional tonal intents - Trust,
Attention, Reciprocity, Empathy Resonance, and Cognitive Energy - in
voice AI systems. Unlike emotion recognition datasets, TonalityPrint
annotates functional tonal intents (what speakers do with tone), not
just what they feel. The dataset provides 144 audio samples across 18
utterances, each recorded in 8 parallel prosodic states. A core innovation
is systematic ambivalence annotation, treating tonal complexity as a
perceptual entropy cross-intent feature rather than noise. Utilizing a
Fixed-Phrase Octet design, the dataset enables Differential Latent Analysis
(DLA) for contrastive approximation of tonal intent vectors. Annotations
are grounded in 8,873+ consequential interactions, capturing an AI-adjacent
yet trusted vocal profile. TonalityPrint is intended as a hypothesized
contrast substrate for researchers exploring inference-time alignment,
prosodic interpretability, style-conditioned synthesis, human-AI voice
calibration, and safety-critical voice agents. All recordings are 100%
authentic human voice (author) with explicit consent, released under CC
