Abstract :
The NATO research study group on “Speech and Language Technology” recently completed a three year project on the effect of “stress” on speech production and system performance. For this purpose various speech databases were collected. A definition of various states of stress and the corresponding type of stressor is proposed. Results are reported from analysis and assessment studies performed with the databases collected for this project
