ParlamentParla - Speech corpus of Catalan Parliamentary sessions

This is the ParlamentParla speech corpus for Catalan prepared by Col·lectivaT. The audio segments were extracted from recordings the Catalan Parliament (Parlament de Catalunya) plenary sessions, which took place between 2007/07/11 - 2018/07/17. We aligned the transcriptions with the recordings and extracted the corpus. The content belongs to the Catalan Parliament and the data is released conforming their terms of use.

Preparation of this corpus was partly supported by the Department of Culture of the Catalan autonomous government, and the v2.0 was supported by the Barcelona Supercomputing Center, within the framework of the project AINA of the Departament de Polítiques Digitals.

As of v2.0 the corpus is separated into 211 hours of clean and 400 hours of other quality segments. Furthermore, each speech segment is tagged with its speaker and each speaker with their gender. The statistics are detailed in the readme file.
