Data

This publication is comprised of speech and script files, and is structured in training and evaluation data. The training data consists of 2,048 voicemail messages and the corresponding script files. The speech and script files are organized in 41 directories, each of which contains up to 50 messages. The evaluation data consists of 50 voicemail messages and 50 scripts.

The speech data is provided in sphere format; it is sampled at 8 KHz, and recorded in 8-bit ulaw, totalling approximately 14 hours (406 MB) for training and 23 minutes (11 MB) for evaluation.

In addition to the individual script files, there are three files which represent a concatenation of the individual scripts: train_scripts.all and eval_scripts .all represent a concatenation of the training and evaluation script files, one file per line, each line beginning with the fileID. eval_scripts_filtered.all is a filtered version of the file eval_scripts.all, after eliminating the tagged elements (<*>) and the proper nouns marker.
