CALLFRIEND Mandarin Chinese-Taiwan Dialect

<h3>Introduction</h3><br>
<p>The CALLFRIEND project supported the development of language identification technology.</p><br>
<h3>Data</h3><br>
<p>The corpus consists of 60 unscripted telephone conversations, lasting between 5-30 minutes. The corpus also includes documentation describing speaker information (sex, age, education, callee telephone number) and call information (channel quality, number of speakers).</p><br>
<p>For each conversation, both the caller and callee are native speakers of Mandarin Chinese from Taiwan. All calls are domestic and were placed inside the continental United States and Canada.</p><br>
<p>Callers in the "Mainland" and "Taiwan" collections of CALLFRIEND Mandarin were identified primarily on the basis of specific attributes in their speech characteristic of geographic origin.</p><br>
