VoiceHome-2 corpus : A corpus dedicated to distant-microphone speech processing in domestic environments

Purpose: This corpus includes reverberated, noisy speech signals spoken by 12 native French talkers in 4 houses (3 rooms per house) and recorded by an 8-microphone device at various angles and distances and in various noise conditions. This corpus stands apart from other corpora in the field by the number of rooms and homes considered by the diversity of acoustic conditions recorded and by the facts that it is publicly available at no cost.
