# Twi Multispeaker Audio Transcribed Dataset
## Overview
The **Twi Multispeaker Audio Transcribed** dataset is a collection of speech recordings and their transcriptions in Asante Twi, a widely spoken dialect of the Akan language in Ghana. The dataset is designed for training and evaluating automatic speech recognition (ASR) models and other natural language processing (NLP) applications.
## Dataset Details
- **Source**: The dataset is derived from the [Financial Inclusion Speech Dataset](https://github.com/Ashesi-Org/Financial-Inclusion-Speech-Dataset), which focuses on financial conversations in Asante Twi.
- **Format**: The dataset consists of audio recordings (.wav) and corresponding transcriptions (.txt or .csv).
- **Speakers**: Multiple speakers contribute to the dataset, making it useful for speaker-independent ASR models.
- **Domain**: Primarily focused on financial and general conversations.
## Splits
The dataset is divided as follows:
- **Train Set**: 90% of the data
- **Test Set**: 10% of the data
## Use Cases
This dataset is useful for:
- Training and evaluating ASR models for Asante Twi.
- Developing Twi language models and NLP applications.
- Linguistic analysis of Asante Twi speech.
## Usage
To use this dataset in your Hugging Face project, you can load it as follows:
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("michsethowusu/twi_multispeaker_audio_transcribed")
```
