Request for original 192 kHz audio — Intel Robotic Welding Multimodal Dataset
Dear Dr. Lopez,
I am Yoonje Lee, a master's student at Hanyang University in South Korea, working on real-time multimodal weld defect detection for edge deployment.
I have been using the Intel Robotic Welding Multimodal Dataset alongside your paper (arXiv:2409.02290), and I wanted to thank you for releasing it — it is an exceptionally useful resource and has significantly started my work.
I have one question. The paper reports a 192 kHz sampling rate, while the released FLAC files are 16 kHz single-channel. Would it be possible to obtain the original 192 kHz recordings, or even a small subset?
Part of my work examines how much defect-relevant acoustic information lies above 8 kHz, which connects directly to your stated reason for selecting high-bandwidth microphones. A subset of a few dozen samples per defect category would be enough for the analysis, and I am glad to comply with any data sharing terms Intel requires.
If sharing is not possible, I completely understand — knowing that would also be helpful, as I could then plan to collect the high-frequency data myself.
Thank you for your time and for making this dataset available.
Best regards,
Yoonje Lee
