# speechocean762: A non-native English corpus for pronunciation scoring task
## Dataset Summary
**speechocean762** is an open-source non-native English speech corpus designed for **pronunciation assessment** and **L2 spoken proficiency modeling**.
This Hugging Face version provides **sentence-level audio and expert scores**, organized into standard `train` / `validation` / `test` splits.
All speakers are Mandarin L1 learners of English, spanning both children and adults. Each utterance is evaluated independently by five expert annotators using standardized pronunciation metrics.
This dataset is suitable for:
- pronunciation scoring
- L2 speech assessment
- speech representation learning
- downstream regression or classification tasks
## Dataset Structure
### Splits
The dataset is published with three predefined splits:
- `train` (2260)
- `val` (240)
- `test` (2500)
Splits are **speaker-disjoint** and provided as native Hugging Face splits.
### Features
Each example contains:
| Field | Type | Description |
|--------|------|-------------|
| `audio` | `Audio` | Speech waveform (16 kHz) |
| `speaker_id` | `string` | Speaker identifier |
| `utt_id` | `string` | Utterance identifier |
| `text` | `string` | Prompt sentence |
| `accuracy` | `int` | Sentence-level pronunciation accuracy |
| `completeness` | `float` | Percentage of correctly pronounced words |
| `fluency` | `int` | Sentence-level fluency score |
| `prosodic` | `int` | Sentence-level prosody score |
| `total` | `int` | Overall pronunciation score |
## Scoring Metrics (Sentence level)
All sentence-level scores follow the original speechocean762 definitions.
For detailed descriptions, see:
- **arXiv:** https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.01378
- **Github:** https://github.com/jimbozhang/speechocean762
## Dataset Creation
This Hugging Face dataset is derived from the original speechocean762 corpus and includes:
- sentence-level audio
- sentence-level expert scores
- standardized HF Audio features
- speaker-disjoint train/val/test splits
Word-level and phoneme-level annotations are not included in this version.
