## Dataset Description

### Dataset Summary

### Example usage

HyVoxPopuli contains labelled data for 18 languages. To load a specific language pass its name as a config name:

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

voxpopuli_croatian = load_dataset("Edmon02/hyvoxpopuli")
```

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

* automatic-speech-recognition: The dataset can be used to train a model for Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR). The model is presented with an audio file and asked to transcribe the audio file to written text. The most common evaluation metric is the word error rate (WER).

Accented English subset can also be used for research in ASR for accented speech (15 L2 accents)

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

```python
{
  'audio_id': 'segment_00000072',
  'audio': {
    'path': '/home/polina/.cache/huggingface/datasets/downloads/extracted/254a284babeb60d348239423161397844bbfb209560b31edecb7f2b91379da7d/segment_00000072.wav',
    'array': array([-0.01434326, -0.01055908,  0.00106812, ...,  0.00646973], dtype=float32),
    'sampling_rate': 16000
  },
  'raw_text': '',
  'normalized_text': 'poast genitalnog sakaenja ena u europi tek je jedna od manifestacija takve tetne politike.',
  'gender': 'female',
  'speaker_id': 'speaker_2',
  'is_gold_transcript': True,
  'accent': 'None'
}
```

### Data Fields

* `audio_id` (string) - id of audio segment
* `audio` (datasets.Audio) - a dictionary containing the path to the audio, the decoded audio array, and the sampling rate. In non-streaming mode (default), the path points to the locally extracted audio. In streaming mode, the path is the relative path of an audio inside its archive (as files are not downloaded and extracted locally).
* `raw_text` (string) - original (orthographic) audio segment text
* `normalized_text` (string) - normalized audio segment transcription
* `gender` (string) - gender of speaker
* `speaker_id` (string) - id of speaker
* `is_gold_transcript` (bool) - ?
* `accent` (string) - type of accent, for example "en_lt", if applicable, else "None".

### Data Splits

All configs contain data in three splits: train, validation and test.
