Yorùbá language audio for ASR, TTS and other speech tasks # Yorùbá Audio This repo aggregates audio/speech corpora for Yorùbá tasks, similarly to the yoruba-text for text datasets. The corpora may contain aligned text or be purely unlabeled. The objective is to have a bird's eye view of _available Yorùbá audio_, and it's metadata and entropy, to **inform additional data collection** tasks & modeling. For example, if we see a large Broadcast news corpus, we might be interested to train a self-supervised model on a pretext task to generate speech embeddings for use in ASR/TTS work. ## Corpora | Name | Size in HH:MM:SS | Transcribed | Segmented in utterances | Aligned | Source | |----------|:-------:| :-------------:|:------:|:----:|:----:| | Lagos-NWU | 02:45:17 | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ | North-West University| | OpenSLR86 | 04:1:31 | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ | OpenSLR, Google| | Bíbélì Mímọ́ (NIV) | 93:38:15 | ✔️ | | | Biblica Open Bible| | Bíbélì Mímọ́ (KJV) | | ✔️ | | | Bible.is| | Colloquial Yorùbá | 02:32:29 | ✔️ | | | Audio files, Textbook| | OrisunTV Broadcast News | 81:49:29 | | | | Youtube | | VoxLingua107 | 94:2:45 | | ✔️ | | post-filtered from Youtube |
