Dataset Structure
Data Instances
A typical data point comprises the path to the audio file and its sentence.
{
'path': 'dv-presidential-speech-train/waves/YAG2_77.wav',
'sentence': 'އަދި އަޅުގަނޑުމެންގެ ސަރަޙައްދުގައިވެސް މިކަހަލަ ބޭބޭފުޅުން',
'audio': {
'path': 'dv-presidential-speech-train/waves/YAG2_77.wav',
'array': array([-0.00048828, -0.00018311, -0.00137329, ..., 0.00079346, 0.00091553, 0.00085449], dtype=float32),
'sampling_rate': 16000
},
}
Data Fields
path (string): The path to the audio file.
sentence (string): The transcription for the audio file.
audio (dict): A dictionary containing the path to the downloaded audio file, the decoded audio array, and the sampling rate. Note that when accessing the audio column: dataset[0]["audio"] the audio file is automatically decoded and resampled to dataset.features["audio"].sampling_rate. Decoding and resampling of a large number of audio files might take a significant amount of time. Thus it is important to first query the sample index before the "audio" column, i.e. dataset[0]["audio"] should always be preferred over dataset["audio"][0].
Data Splits
The speech material has been subdivided into portions for train, test and validation. The test clips were generated from a speech not in the train split. For the validation split, there is a slight overlap of 1 speech in the train set.
| Train | Validation | Test | |
