# Mići Princ - Chakavian ASR Dataset

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's _The Little Prince_, translated into Chakavian dialect of Croatian and read by native speakers. Full dataset (with all metadata and structure) is published at http://hdl.handle.net/11356/1765.

## Dataset composition

Attributes:
* audio: audio chunk. In `train`, the audio can include multiple speakers and has a duration in [0, 30] seconds for easier ASR training. In `test`, only one speaker is present in an instance.
* text: Text with punctuation, newlines, bullets, and special characters.
* normalized_text: Text with some punctuation removed and special characters remapped for easier training. Characters, not present in standard Croatian (ȅ,é,ȋ,ȉ,ȃ,ȁ), are substituted with non-special characters (e,i,a). Bullets, newlines, and quotation marks are removed. 
* speaker: In `train`, this attribute is always an empty string. In `test` it accurately represents the speaker of the chunk.

Extent:
* `train`: 277 instances
* `test`: 95 instances
