This repository provides a Hugging Face-ready repackaging of the Lingala Read Speech Corpus (LRSC), the labelled Lingala subset of Speech Recognition Datasets for Congolese Languages.
The goal of this repackaging by Bantu Languages Initiative is to make the annotated LRSC subset easier to load, inspect, cite, and use with the Hugging Face datasets library for ASR research on Lingala and under-resourced Bantu languages.
