TC-STAR is a European integrated project focusing on all core technologies for Speech-to-Speech Translation (SST): Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), Spoken Language Translation (SLT), and Text to Speech Synthesis (TTS).

This corpus consists of the transcriptions of 100 hours of Spanish Parliamentary speech. These comprise the following:
a) 38:24 hours of speech recorded from the Spanish Parliament during plenary sessions and commissions between September 2004 and December 2004, and
b) 61:53 hours of speech recorded from the European Parliament speaking in the parliamentary plenary sessions as well as recordings of interpreters, between May 2004 and January 2005.

The corresponding recordings are made available separately in this catalogue as TC-STAR Spanish Training Corpora for ASR: Recordings of EPPS Speech (ref. ELRA-S0252).
