Abstract<br />
The Pitch Tracking Database from <strong>Graz</strong> <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Technology</strong> (PTDB-TUG) is a speech<br />
database for pitch tracking that provides microphone and laryngograph signals <strong>of</strong> 20 English<br />
native speakers as well as reference pitch trajectories. Each subject read 236 out <strong>of</strong> 2342 phonetically<br />
rich sentences from the existing TIMIT corpus [2]. The text material was selected such that<br />
each sentence was spoken by at least one female and one male speaker. In total this database<br />
consists <strong>of</strong> 4720 recorded utterances. All recordings were carried out on-site at the recording<br />
studio <strong>of</strong> the Institute <strong>of</strong> Broadband Communications at <strong>Graz</strong> <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Technology</strong>. In this<br />
report an exposition <strong>of</strong> all the properties and a description <strong>of</strong> the main steps <strong>of</strong> production are<br />
presented.
