| # Parliament |
|
|
| Parliament is an OpenFormosa Traditional Chinese speech dataset derived from the |
| `zh_tw` split of [disco-eth/WorldSpeech](https://huggingface.co/datasets/disco-eth/WorldSpeech). |
| It contains audio clips and human transcripts from Taiwan Legislative Yuan IVOD |
| parliamentary proceedings. |
|
|
| This release keeps only rows that passed the Taiwan-OmniData / FineWeb2-style |
| text filtering pipeline. Audio is preserved from the upstream dataset and cast |
| as a Hugging Face `Audio(sampling_rate=24000)` feature. |
|

|
| ## Fields |
|
|
| - `audio`: audio clip, Hugging Face `Audio(sampling_rate=24000)` |
| - `text`: filtered human transcript |
| - `human_transcript`: original human transcript from WorldSpeech |
| - `asr_transcript`: upstream ASR transcript |
| - `cer`: upstream character error rate signal |
| - `snr`: upstream signal-to-noise estimate |
| - `dnsmos_sig`, `dnsmos_bak`, `dnsmos_ovr`, `dnsmos_p808`: upstream DNSMOS quality signals |
| - `duration`: clip duration in seconds |
| - `source`: upstream source label |
| - `source_url`: original IVOD media URL |
| - `source_start_s`, `source_end_s`: segment offsets in the original media |
| - `session_date`: parliamentary session date if available |
| - `segment_id`: upstream segment id |
| - `doc_id`: Taiwan-OmniData document id |
| - `row_index`: row index in `disco-eth/WorldSpeech`, config `zh_tw`, split `train` |
| - `estimated_tokens`: heuristic token estimate for the transcript |
| - `quality_score`, `taiwan_relevance_score`, `zh_tw_naturalness_score`, `safety_score`, `pii_risk_score`: filtering/scoring signals |
| - `filter_metadata`: compact provenance metadata for the filtering pass |
|
|
| ## Filtering |
|
|
| The source rows were processed through the Taiwan-OmniData filtering pipeline: |
|
|
| - text normalization and metadata preservation |
| - Taiwan/Traditional Chinese locale tagging |
| - FineWeb2-style repetition and boilerplate filters |
| - safety and PII-risk scoring |
| - train/eval separation metadata |
|
|
| Rejected rows are not included in this release. Top rejection reasons from the |
| filtering run: |
|
|
| - `fineweb2_top_2gram_fraction`: 8,336 |
| - `fineweb2_top_4gram_fraction`: 5,966 |
| - `fineweb2_dup_5gram_fraction`: 5,467 |
| - `fineweb2_top_3gram_fraction`: 4,895 |
| - `fineweb2_dup_6gram_fraction`: 95 |
| - `fineweb2_max_avg_word_length`: 2 |
| - `fineweb2_dup_7gram_fraction`: 1 |
|
|
| ## Usage |
|
|
| ```python |
| from datasets import load_dataset, Audio |
| |
| ds = load_dataset("OpenFormosa/parliament", split="train") |
| ds = ds.cast_column("audio", Audio(sampling_rate=24000)) |
| sample = ds[0] |
| print(sample["text"]) |
| print(sample["audio"]["sampling_rate"]) |
| ``` |
|
|
| For metadata-only inspection without decoding audio: |
|
|
| ```python |
| from datasets import load_dataset, Audio |
| |
| ds = load_dataset("OpenFormosa/parliament", split="train") |
| ds = ds.cast_column("audio", Audio(sampling_rate=24000, decode=False)) |
| print(ds[0]["audio"].keys()) |
| ``` |
