Dear colleague,

It gives us great pleasure to announce the official launch of the CHiME-5 Challenge.

CHiME-5 considers the problem of distant-microphone conversational speech recognition in
everyday home environments. Speech material was elicited using a dinner party scenario
with efforts taken to capture data that is representative of natural conversational
speech. Participants may use a single microphone array or multiple distributed arrays.


FORUM

If you are considering participating, please join the CHiME-5 Google group for
discussions and further announcements.

MATERIALS

The Challenge website is now live and contains all the information and data that you will
need for participation:
- a detailed description of the challenge scenario and recording conditions,
- real training and development data,
- full instructions for participation and submission.

Baseline software for array synchronization, speech enhancement, and state-of-the-art
speech recognition will be provided on March 12.

If you have a question that isn't answered by the website and you expect other
participants to have the answer or to be interested by the answer, please post it on the

We look forward to your participation.
