ABSTRACT
Corpus development gained much attention due to recent statistics based natural language processing. It has new
applications in Language Technology, linguistic research, language education and information exchange. Corpus
based Language research has an innovative outlook which will discard the aged linguistic theories. Speech corpus
is the essential resources for building a speech recognizer. One of the main challenges faced by speech scientist is
the unavailability of these resources. Very fewer efforts have been made in Indian languages to make these
resources available to public compared to English. In this paper we review the efforts made in Indian languages
for developing speech corpus for automatic speech recognition.
