dataset

Classify audio utterances in Luganda and English from Uganda
This dataset consists of 193 agricultural keywords in English and Lugandan compiled from agricultural talk shows taken from radio recordings in Uganda. These were complemented with data scraped from Bukedde which is an online Luganda newspaper in Uganda. The keywords can be categorized into crops, diseases, fertilisers, herbicides and general keywords. There are 1109 utterances in the train set and 1017 utterances in the test set. By 31 October we will add additional .wav files.
The data consists of .wav files with unique IDs as file names. The labels for the training set are contained in train.csv, corresponding to one of the 193 agriculture-related keywords. Your task is to predict the labels for the test set, following the format in SampleSubmission.csv.
We are grateful to the researchers and winners of the GIZ AI4D Africa Language Challenge who shared the recordings which made this competition possible.
