Dataset Card for Banc Trawsgrifiadau Bangor
This dataset is a bank of 20 hours 6 minutes and 49 seconds of segments of natural speech from over 50 contributors in mp3 file format, together with corresponding 'verbatim' transcripts of the speech in .tsv file format. The majority of the speech is spontaneous, natural speech. The dataset was distributed by Canolfan Bedwyr under a CC0 open license. The original dataset can be found here: link.
Data Fields
audio_filename (string): The name of the audio file within the 'clips' folder
audio_filesize (int64): The size of the 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].
transcript (string): The transcript of the audio clip
duration (duration[ms]): Duration of the clip in milliseconds
