GneutralSpeech Male

A database containing high sampling rate recordings of a single speaker reading sentences in Brazilian Portuguese with neutral voice, along with the corresponding text corpus. Intended for speech synthesis and automatic speech recognition applications, the dataset contains text extracted from a popular Brazilian news TV program, totalling roughly 20 h of audio spoken by a trained individual in a controlled environment. The text was normalized in the recording process and special textual occurrences (e.g. acronyms, numbers, foreign names etc.) were replaced by their phonetic translation to a readable text in Portuguese. There are no noticeable accidental sounds and background noise has been kept to a minimum in all audio samples.
