Abstract : A NATO research group carried out collaborative studies on military applications of speech processing. A major requirement in this area of work is for large quantities of speech recordings made in military environments, which are often expensive and difficult to obtain. Research and development in this area will benefit from sharing such data as widely as possible among the NATO research community. The cost of collecting speech recordings under realistic military conditions is high. Considerable cost savings may be made if such data are shared as widely as possible amongst the NATO community. The NATO research group on speech processing will continue to maintain and update the database of speech recordings relevant to military applications of speech technology. Further ways of disseminating this information will be sought, including electronic means such as the Internet.
