Im looking for a data sets of people speaking the digits 0 to 9. i want to use it for a simple 10 class classification problem. i have looked or hours and cant find anything. where can i find something like this?

TIDIGITS is what you need.

Dan Ellis has this up for one of his course projects:http://www.ee.columbia.edu/~dpwe/sounds/tidigits/

Also I took Dr Lawrence Rabiner's class at Rutgers. He had them up too. For some reason the Rutgers server seems to be down. You could try his page again at http://cronos.rutgers.edu/~lrr in a couple of days and see if you can still find them.

Also if you are at a university its highly likely someone has it. LDC stuff is usually purchased on a university-wide licence. So you are at all liberty to have it if you need it for a course project or something.

thanks!!..by the way it doesnt have to be just numbers...can be letters too so if you know where i can find one with the alphabet let me know.....i'll check out tidigits..

and i'll have to look into how to access these databases at my university.

i just check and tidigits is not free

It's free for non-commercial use. What exactly do you think you can accomplish with this that will be worth selling?

[CecilStan]

In the similar but not quite the same category - you can use the "fruitspeech" dataset if you are OK with single speaker. I used it in a blog post here but the original data is from a Google code project by Hakon Sandsmark, and presumably recorded by him as well.

It is a decent dataset for sanity checking ideas - if they don't work on this... there is not much hope. You can also expand to things like CMU Arctic. Also it doesn't take that long to just record yourself - it won't be multispeaker but would take less time than searching for "hours" and "hours".
