This dataset consists of 3 hours of 16kHz audio collected from diverse environments to better represent real-world scenarios. The recordings were sourced from audiobooks, YouTube, and other public sources, ensuring a wide variety of speech styles and acoustic conditions.
One key advantage of this dataset is that it was collected from recent sources within the last few months, ensuring no overlap with training data and fairness for evaluating other STT models.
To enable a robust and fair comparison of models, the dataset has been carefully normalized: extra characters and inconsistencies in Persian text have been removed, and orthographic variations have been standardized.
