In this paper, we evaluate a newly recorded Spanish Lombard Speech database. This database has been recorded with expressive speech synthesis in mind, and more particularly adaptability to the environment. Real stationary noise recorded inside of a car was used to produce the Lombard speech response in the speaker by means of a headphone. Four different noise levels were used, in steps of 5 dB and also clean speech to set the clean speech baseline. Finally, a pair of intelligibility evaluations were carried out, one with natural speech that proves the validity of the recorded database by showing a 37% absolute increase in intelligibility in a -10 dB SNR condition when compared to non-Lombard speech. The second evaluation was carried out with synthetic speech, which showed a 10% absolute increase in intelligibility for both the -10 and -15 dB SNR condition. | |
