# Introduction
|
|
|
|
This CSTR VCTK Corpus includes speech data uttered by 110 English speakers with various accents. Each speaker reads out about 400 sentences, which were selected from a newspaper, the rainbow passage and an elicitation paragraph used for the speech accent archive.
|
|
The newspaper texts were taken from Herald Glasgow, with permission from Herald & Times Group. Each speaker has a different set of the newspaper texts selected based a greedy algorithm that increases the contextual and phonetic coverage.
|
|
The details of the text selection algorithms are described in the following paper: [C. Veaux, J. Yamagishi and S. King, "The voice bank corpus: Design, collection and data analysis of a large regional accent speech database,"](https://doi.org/10.1109/ICSDA.2013.6709856).
