OpenSLR-80 – Brumese Transcribed Speech
Source: https://www.openslr.org/80/
Dataset Description
- Homepage: OpenSLR SLR80
This dataset contains transcribed high-quality audio of Burmese sentences recorded by female volunteers. It is part of the OpenSLR collection of free speech resources for low-resource languages.
The data was collected via the Appen (formerly Figure Eight / CrowdFlower) crowdsourcing platform and is intended for use in training automatic speech recognition (ASR) and text-to-speech (TTS) systems.
Data Collection
Volunteers were asked to read Burmese sentences displayed on their screen and record themselves. Quality control was performed to ensure accurate transcriptions and clean audio.
