Abstract
This paper introduces the current primary functionalities, characteristics and usages of Unified Minority Speech Parameter Database Platform Software as well as future-expanded functions. By using the platform, we can accomplish acoustic parameter retrieval, statistics and analysis of established Tibetan, Uigur and Yi broadcasting acoustic parameter databases. After adding acoustic parameters of more minority language speech into the platform, phonological analysis and comparison of languages within same language family can be achieved. Other important goals of designing the platform are to implement phonetic resources sharing, accumulation and protection of endangered minority language speech esc.
