Abstract

Information Retrieval (IR) applications require appropriate Multimodal Resources to develop all of their components. The work described in this paper is one of the main steps of a broader project that consists in developing a Multimodal Index System for Information Retrieval. The final goal of this part of the project is to create a robust Automatic Speech Recognition System for Basque that also covers the other languages spoken in the Basque Country: Spanish and French. It is widely accepted that the robustness of these systems is directly related to the quality of the resources used during training. Hence, the digital resources for Multilingual Continuous Speech Recognition systems for the three official languages in the Basque Country have to be described.
