This small dataset contains 3 speech corpora collected using the Alex Translate telephone service (https://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/alex#alex-translate).
The "part1" and "part2" corpora contain English speech with transcriptions and Czech translations. These recordings were collected from users of the service. Part 1 contains earlier recordings, filtered to include only clean speech; Part 2 contains later recordings with no filtering applied.
The "cstest" corpus contains recordings of artificially created sentences, each containing one or more Czech names of places in the Czech Republic. These were recorded by a multinational group of students studying in Prague.
We present a test corpus of audio recordings and transcriptions of presentations of students' enterprises together with their slides and web-pages. The corpus is intended for evaluation of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems, especially in conditions where the prior availability of in-domain vocabulary and named entities is benefitable.
The corpus consists of 39 presentations in English, each up to 90 seconds long, and slides and web-pages in Czech, Slovak, English, German, Romanian, Italian or Spanish.
The speakers are high school students from European countries with English as their second language.
We benchmark three baseline ASR systems on the corpus and show their imperfection.
We present a large corpus of Czech parliament plenary sessions. The corpus
consists of approximately 444 hours of speech data and corresponding text
transcriptions. The whole corpus has been segmented to short audio snippets
making it suitable for both training and evaluation of automatic speech
recognition (ASR) systems. The source language of the corpus is Czech, which
makes it a valuable resource for future research as only a few public datasets
are available for the Czech language.
Vystadial 2013 is a dataset of telephone conversations in English and Czech, developed for training acoustic models for automatic speech recognition in spoken dialogue systems. It ships in three parts: Czech data, English data, and scripts.
The data comprise over 41 hours of speech in English and over 15 hours in Czech, plus orthographic transcriptions. The scripts implement data pre-processing and building acoustic models using the HTK and Kaldi toolkits.
This is the scripts part of the dataset. and This research was funded by the Ministry of
Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic under the grant agreement
LK11221.
