1. Junko Ariyama, Japanese Speech Recognition

Hi everyone,

The company where I'm working now (Locus Dialogue, Montreal, Canada)
is collecting Japanese speech data for developing automatic speech
recognition system in Japanese.

Our web site is http://www.NuPhonix.com . On this page, you'll be asked
to register and then you'll receive the list of words which you'll
speak over the phone.

The telephone number from North America is 1-888-GO-LOCUS
 (Ext:5172) 
and from Japan is 001-800-5629-5629. Both numbers
are toll-free (free-dial). The whole process of data collection will
take 7 to 8 minutes and you could win an exciting prize just by
calling!

A participant must be fluent in speaking Japanese but not necessarily
be a native Japanese speaker.


 	Thank you very much!
