Data Proccessing:

  • Audio Alignment: Matching audio segments with corresponding text to ensure accurate transcription and contextual alignment.
  • Transcription Correction: Reviewing and correcting transcriptions to address errors and discrepancies in the initial text.
  • Standardization: Converting words and phrases into their standardized forms to maintain consistency across the dataset.
  • Padding: Adding padding to shorter audio segments to address issues with Kaldi and ensure uniformity in input lengths.
  • Silence Removal: Eliminating segments of audio that contain only silence to improve dataset efficiency and relevance.
  • Annotation: Labeling audio segments that require transcriptions and other metadata. Ensuring that non-annotated audio is reviewed and annotated if necessary.

Content Types

  • Music: Includes recordings of different music genres.
  • FootBall: Includes recordings of football news and reviews.
  • Documentaries: Audio from documentaries about history and nature.
  • Podcasts: Conversations and discussions from various podcast episodes.
  • Authors: Audio recordings of authors reading or discussing different stories: horror, children's literature, life lessons, and others.
  • Lessons: Learning resources for the Tunisian dialect.
  • Others: Mixed recordings with various subjects.

Languages and Dialects

  • Tunisian Arabic: The primary focus of the dataset, including Tunisian Arabic and some Modern Standard Arabic (MSA).
  • French: Some instances of French code-switching.
  • English: Some instances of English code-switching.

Characteristics

  • Audio Duration: The dataset contains approximately 93 hours of audio recordings.
  • Segments Duration: This dataset contains segments, each with a duration of less than 30 seconds.
  • Labeled Data: Includes annotations and transcriptions for a significant portion of the audio content.

Data Distribution

  • Training Set: Comprises a diverse range of audio recordings, each representing different contexts, aimed at enhancing the model's performance across various scenarios.
  • Testing Set: onsists of a varied set of audio recordings, also covering different contexts, dedicated to assessing the model’s performance and generalization.

This composition ensures a comprehensive representation of various audio types and linguistic features, making the dataset valuable for a range of ASR research and development tasks.

Example use (python)

  • Load the dataset in python:
from datasets import load_dataset

# dataset will be loaded as a DatasetDict of train and test
dataset = load_dataset("linagora/linto-dataset-audio-ar-tn-0.1")

Check the containt of dataset:

example = dataset['train'][0] 
audio_array = example['audio']["array"]
segments = example['segments']
transcription = example['transcript']

print(f"Audio array: {audio_array}")
print(f"Segments: {segments}")
print(f"Transcription: {transcription}")

Example

Audio array: [0. 0. 0. ... 0. 0. 0.]
