Abstract
MediaParl is a Swiss accented bilingual database containing recordings in both French and German as they are spoken in Switzerland. The data were recorded at the Valais Parliament. Valais is a bilingual Swiss canton with many local accents and dialects. Therefore, the database contains data with high variability and is suitable to study multilingual, accented and non-native speech recognition as well as language identification and language switch detection. We also define monolingual and mixed language automatic speech recognition and language identification tasks and evaluate baseline systems. The database is publicly available for download.
