# Gigaspeech Part 2

This is **Part 2 of 8** of a large-scale speech dataset, split to accommodate HuggingFace's repository size limits.

## Multi-Part Dataset

This dataset is split across multiple repositories:

- Part 1: [shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-1](https://huggingface.co/datasets/shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-1)
- **Part 2** (current): [shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-2](https://huggingface.co/datasets/shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-2)
- Part 3: [shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-3](https://huggingface.co/datasets/shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-3)
- Part 4: [shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-4](https://huggingface.co/datasets/shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-4)
- Part 5: [shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-5](https://huggingface.co/datasets/shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-5)
- Part 6: [shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-6](https://huggingface.co/datasets/shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-6)
- Part 7: [shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-7](https://huggingface.co/datasets/shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-7)
- Part 8: [shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-8](https://huggingface.co/datasets/shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-8)


## This Repository (Part 2)

- **Total parquet files**: 4
- **Total size**: 289.84 GB
- **Failed uploads**: 0
- **Subfolders**: 1

### Files by Subfolder:
- **xl/train**: 269 files (289.84 GB)


## Usage

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

# Load this part of the dataset
dataset = load_dataset("shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-2")

# Load specific subfolder from this part
dataset = load_dataset("shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-2", 
                      data_files="data/xl/train/*.parquet")

# To load the complete multi-part dataset:
import datasets
parts = []
for i in range(1, 9):
    part_repo = "shahdsaf/gigaspeech-part-" + str(i)
    part_data = load_dataset(part_repo)
    parts.append(part_data['train'])

# Concatenate all parts
complete_dataset = datasets.concatenate_datasets(parts)
```

## File Organization

All parquet files are stored under the `data/` directory, maintaining the original subfolder structure.

## Important Notes

- This is part of a multi-repository dataset due to size constraints
- Each part maintains the original folder structure
- Use the concatenation approach above to work with the complete dataset
- Files are distributed to balance repository sizes (max 290 GB per repo)
