几个SpeechDat项目正在汇编各种欧洲语言的大量口语资源(SLR)，目的是主要通过电话线培训和测试语音驱动服务的语音识别器。本文重点研究了Speechdat SLR中应用的注释约定。这些SLR包含具有简单的拼写转录的简短的独白讲话的典型例子，在分层简单的注释结构中。描述了注释约定及其基本原则，并与相关SLR所使用的方法进行了比较。讨论了正字法转录与相应语音文件的同步问题，并讨论了所选择的方法对捕获特定语音和语音现象的影响。在SpeechDat项目中，开发了一些工具来进行演讲稿的转录。本文简要介绍了这些工具及其特性。对于所有SpeechDat项目，都对数据库及其注释进行了内部有效性检查。介绍了验证活动的程序、执行的评估和部分结果。
A large set of spoken language resources (SLR) for various European languages is being compiled in several SpeechDat projects with the aim to train and test speech recognizers for voice driven services, mainly over telephone lines. This paper is focused on the annotation conventions applied for the Speechdat SLR. These SLR contain typical examples of short monologue speech utterances with simple orthographic transcriptions in a hierarchically simple annotation structure. The annotation conventions and their underlying principles are described and compared to approaches used for related SLR. The synchronization of the orthographic transcriptions with the corresponding speech files is addressed, and the impact of the selected approach for capturing specific phonological and phonetic phenomena is discussed. In the SpeechDat projects a number of tools have been developed to carry out the transcription of the speech. In this paper, a short description of these tools and their properties is provided. For all SpeechDat projects, an internal validity check of the databases and their annotations is carried out. The procedure of this validation campaign, the performed evaluations, and some of the results are presented.
