### Dataset Summary |
|
The Hong Kong Cantonese Corpus (HKCanCor) comprise transcribed conversations recorded |
|
between March 1997 and August 1998. It contains recordings of spontaneous speech (51 texts) |
|
and radio programmes (42 texts), which involve 2 to 4 speakers, with 1 text of monologue. |
|
|
|
In total, the corpus contains around 230,000 Chinese words. The text is word-segmented (i.e., tokenization is at word-level, and each token can span multiple Chinese characters). Tokens are annotated with part-of-speech (POS) tags and romanised Cantonese pronunciation. |
|
|
|
* Romanisation |
|
* Follows conventions set by the Linguistic Society of Hong Kong (LSHK). |
|
* POS |
|
* The tagset used by this corpus extends the one in the Peita-Fujitsu-Renmin Ribao (PRF) corpus (Duan et al., 2000). Extensions were made to further capture Cantonese-specific phenomena. |
|
* To facilitate everyday usage and for better comparability across languages and/or corpora, this dataset also includes the tags mapped to the [Universal Dependencies 2.0](https://universaldependencies.org/u/pos/index.html) format. This mapping references the [PyCantonese](https://github.com/jacksonllee/pycantonese) library. |

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards |
|
[More Information Needed] |
|
|
|
### Languages |
|
Yue Chinese / Cantonese (Hong Kong). |
|
|
|
## Dataset Structure |
|
This corpus has 10801 utterances and approximately 230000 Chinese words. |
|
There is no predefined split. |
|
|
|
### Data Instances |
|
Each instance contains a conversation id, speaker id within that conversation, |
|
turn number, part-of-speech tag for each Chinese word in the PRF format and UD2.0 format, |
|
and the utterance written in Chinese characters as well as its LSHK format romanisation. |
|
|
|
|
|
For example: |
|
```python |
|
{ |
|
'conversation_id': 'TNR016-DR070398-HAI6V' |
|
'pos_tags_prf': ['v', 'w'], |
|
'pos_tags_ud': ['VERB', 'PUNCT'], |
|
'speaker': 'B', |
|
'transcriptions': ['hai6', 'VQ1'], |
|
'turn_number': 112, |
|
'tokens': ['係', '。'] |
|
} |
|
``` |
|
|
|
### Data Fields |
|
- conversation_id: unique dialogue-level id |
|
- pos_tags_prf: POS tag using the PRF format at token-level |
|
- pos_tag_ud: POS tag using the UD2.0 format at token-level |
|
- speaker: unique speaker id within dialogue |
|
- transcriptions: token-level romanisation in the LSHK format |
|
- turn_number: turn number in dialogue |
|
- tokens: Chinese word or punctuation at token-level |
|
|
|
### Data Splits |
