Description:		The Polish Speecon database is divided into 2 sets: 1) The first set comprises the recordings of 550 adult Polish speakers (286 males, 264 females), recorded over 4 microphone channels in 4 recording environments (office, entertainment, car, public place). 2) The second set comprises the recordings of 50 child Polish speakers (25 boys, 25 girls), recorded over 4 microphone channels in 1 recording environment (children room). This database is partitioned into 26 DVDs (first set) and 3 DVDs (second set).The speech databases made within the Speecon project were validated by SPEX, the Netherlands, to assess their compliance with the Speecon format and content specifications.Each of the four speech channels is recorded at 16 kHz, 16 bit, uncompressed unsigned integers in Intel format (lo-hi byte order). To each signal file corresponds an ASCII SAM label file which contains the relevant descriptive information.Each speaker uttered the following items:Calibration data: 6 noise recordingsThe “silence word” recordingFree spontaneous items (adults only):3 minutes (session time) of free spontaneous, rich context items (story telling) (an open number of spontaneous topics out of a set of 30 topics)17 Elicited spontaneous items (adults only):3 dates, 2 times, 3 proper names, 2 city name, 1 letter sequence, 2 answers to questions, 3 telephone numbers, 1 language Read speech:30 phonetically rich sentences uttered by adults and 60 uttered by children5 phonetically rich words (adults only)4 isolated digits1 isolated digit sequence4 connected digit sequences1 telephone number3 natural numbers1 money amount2 time phrases (T1 : analogue, T2 : digital)3 dates (D1 : analogue, D2 : relative and general date, D3 : digital)3 letter sequences1 proper name2 city or street names2 questions5 special keyboard characters (2 by children)1 Web address1 email address208 application specific words and phrases per session (adults)74 toy commands, 34 general commands and 14 phone commands (children)The following age distribution has been obtained: Adults: 286 speakers are between 15 and 30, 165 speakers are between 31 and 45, 79 speakers are between 46 and 60, and 20 speakers are over 60.Children: 23 speakers are between 8 and 10, 27 speakers are between 11 and 14.A pronunciation lexicon with a phonemic transcription in SAMPA is also included.
