Title
Speechdat multilingual speech databases for teleservices: across the finish line
Abstract
The goal of the SpeechDat project is to develop spoken language resources for speech recognisers s uited to realise voice driven teleservices. SpeechDat created speech databases for all official languages of the European Union and some major dialectal varieties and minority languages. The size of the databases ranges between 500 and 5000 speakers. In total 20 d atabases are recorded o ver the fixed telephone network, 5 databases over the cellular network, and 3 databases are designed for speaker verification. To date the project has successfully reached its end. This paper briefly describes the project, addresses the validation of the databases, their availability to consortium m embers and third parties, publicity and awareness, and the spin-off of the project in speech recognition research.
