<|reference_start|>FeruzaSpeech: A 60 Hour Uzbek Read Speech Corpus with Punctuation, Casing, and Context: This paper introduces FeruzaSpeech, a read speech corpus of the Uzbek language, containing transcripts in both Cyrillic and Latin alphabets, freely available for academic research purposes. This corpus includes 60 hours of high-quality recordings from a single native female speaker from Tashkent, Uzbekistan. These recordings consist of short excerpts from a book and BBC News. This paper discusses the enhancement of the Word Error Rates (WERs) on CommonVoice 16.1's Uzbek data, Uzbek Speech Corpus data, and FeruzaSpeech data upon integrating FeruzaSpeech.<|reference_end|>
