Usage

from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("conglq/VNMed_Speech")
print(ds["train"][0])

from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("parquet", data_files="data/reviewed-merged.parquet")

Data Collection

Audio segments were extracted from doof-ferb/VietMed_unlabeled and transcribed using an ASR system. Transcripts were then manually reviewed by Vietnamese-speaking annotators who corrected errors and verified accuracy.
