About Dataset

IIT Madras has been working on building text to speech synthesis (TTS) systems since 2004 with funding from IBM and MeiTY. This is a project on developing text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis systems for Indian languages, improving quality of synthesis, as well as small foot print TTS integrated with disability aids and various other applications. This is a consortium based project funded by the Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology (MeiTY), Government of India involving 23 institutions and SMT, IITM being one of them. A special corpus of Indian languages covering 22 major languages of India. It comprises of 10000+ spoken sentences/utterances each of mono and english recorded by both Male and Female native speakers. Speech waveform files are available in .wav format along with the corresponding text. We hope that these recordings will be useful for researchers and speech technologists working on synthesis and recognition. (https://www.iitm.ac.in/donlab/indictts)
