    *** About NEOLOGOS ***

    NEOLOGOS, a project funded by the French government within the
    Technolangue programme aimed at designing speech resources for the
    development and the assessment of French
    speech recognition and speech synthesis systems: the PAIDIALOGOS AND
    IDIOLOGOS databases.

    PAIDIALOGOS is the result of a collection of French child and teenage
    voices, aged 7 to 17, equally divided into boys and girls, and
    representative of the different regions in France.
    350 speakers were recorded over the GSM telephone network and 650 over
    the fixed telephone network.

    IDIOLOGOS tried to optimize the database contents in terms of diversity
    of the recorded voices, while reducing the number of recorded speakers.
    Its goal was to build a reference
    database for French adult voices.

    A description of the project is available at:
     http://www.technolangue.net/article.php3?id_article=83
    <http://www.technolangue.net/article.php3?id_article=203>(in French only).
