This project aims to create a large, publicly accessible corpus of annotated Australian children’s speech, which is currently lacking both in Australia and internationally. This corpus will provide the basic infrastructure vital for innovative research on children’s speech and the training of speech scientists and engineers. It is expected to be used by researchers working on speech analysis, processing and speech recognition to develop applications for use in the areas of psychology, education, linguistics, speech and language pathology, as well as any area that has potential to use speech-controlled software to engage children in health and education activities. This project will provide significant benefits, including applications such as remote speech therapy, interactive reading tutors, pronunciation coaching and educational games.

该项目旨在创建一个大型，公开访问的澳大利亚儿童演讲，目前在澳大利亚和国际上都缺乏。该语料库将为儿童言论和言语科学家和工程师的培训提供创新研究至关重要的基本基础设施。预计将使用从事语音分析，处理和语音识别的研究人员使用它，以开发在心理学，教育，语言学，语言和语言病理领域的应用，以及任何有可能使用语音控制软件使儿童参与健康和教育活动的领域。该项目将提供巨大的好处，包括诸如远程语音疗法，互动阅读教师，发音教练和教育游戏等应用程序。
