This paper introduces a new Romanian speech corpus from the ROBIN project, called ROBIN Technical Acquisition Speech Corpus (ROBINTASC). Its main purpose was to improve the behaviour of a conversational agent, allowing human-machine interaction in the context of purchasing technical equipment. The paper contains a detailed description of the acquisition process, corpus statistics as well as an evaluation of the corpus influence on a low-latency ASR system as well as a dialogue component.
