Chilean Spanish Speech Recordings for Model Training

7 hours of transcribed audio recordings of Chilean Spanish sentences. The dataset was created by author ylacombe from restructured OpenSLR archives and was last updated in November 2023.

Use Cases

• Train automatic speech recognition models to transcribe Chilean Spanish audio sentences.
• Develop text-to-speech models using the high-quality audio recordings and corresponding transcriptions.
• Fine-tune speech models on a specific Spanish dialect using the Chilean Spanish sentences.
• Benchmark model performance on a dataset of 31 distinct volunteer speakers.

Strengths

• 7 hours of total audio content.
• Recordings from 31 distinct volunteer speakers.
• High-quality audio specifically for speech technologies.

Limitations

• Sample size is limited to 7 hours, which is small for training large speech models.
• Limited demographic information about the 31 volunteers may introduce bias.
• Dataset scope is restricted to Chilean Spanish, limiting generalizability to other dialects.
