A multi-stream audio-video large-vocabulary Mandarin Chinese speech database
Luhong Liangi, Yu Luo, Feiyue Huang, Ara Nefian · 2005
We present the acquisition and content of a multi-stream audio-visual large-vocabulary database in Mandarin Chinese. The database consists of 17,000 utterances spoken by 225 people and captured by a set of seven cameras and 12 microphones. We also provide the label files that describe the endpoints of the utterances and the script files that represent the actual pronunciation of speech. The database can be used in audio-visual speech recognition (AVSR) for both large-vocabulary and small tasks, microphone array based speech recognition, audio-visual speaker identification and 3D face modeling.
