Introduction

ATIS0 Read is comprised of about five hours of spontaneous speech, read speech and other material from participants in the ATIS collection. Other corpora in the collection are: ATIS0 Pilot (LDC93S4B) and ATIS0 SD-Read (LDC93S4B-3)ATIS0 Complete (LDC93S4A) contains all three corpora.

The ATIS (Air Travel Information Services) collection was developed to support the research and development of speech understanding systems. Participants were presented with various hypothetical travel planning scenarios and asked to solve them by interacting with partially or completely automated ATIS systems. The resulting utterances were recorded and transcribed. Data was collected in the early 1990s at five US sites: Raytheon BBN, Carnegie Mellon University, MIT Laboratory for Computer Science, National Institute for Standards and Technology and SRI International.

ATIS0 Read contains "read" versions of the spontaneous utterances for 20 of the 36 speakers above (11 male, 9 female), for a total of 478 productions. This is supplemented by a set of 40 "adaptation" sentences read by each of the 20 speakers.

Data

ATIS speech data was recorded at 16kHz sample rate, 16-bit quantization, from two microphones: a close-talking (Sennheiser HMD414) and a desk-top (Crown PCC-160) model. Utterances were transcribed.
