AW: Speech recognition

[Lynn Santelmann]

Dear Janet,

One of my students worked for a while on a project with the Oregon Graduate
Institute that was working on developing a computerized talking head for
speech production and a speech recognizer. The project she was working on
was working with using this technology primarily with Deaf students, but
they do have a corpus of typical children's speech and some data on a
recognizer. I believe their tools are free for researchers. My student
suggested you contact:

>CSLU has a kids corpora and a children's
>recognizer.  I would contact Jacques de Villiers
>(jacques at cse.ogi.edu) for more details.

Best,

Lynn Santelmannn

Dear all

Has anyone out there done / found any research on the use of speech
recognition software with children aged 6 - 10? If so, could anyone
recommend a product - I've had very limited success with via voice, which is
tricky to train.  Are there any speech corpora out there which I could use
for kids and possibly import into a standard package?
