Could you clarify the license for commercial use?
Could you clarify the license for commercial use?
Hi, and thank you for releasing this dataset — phoneme-level annotation
for Quranic recitation is rare and genuinely useful.
The repository doesn't currently declare a license and the README is empty.
Could you clarify the intended terms?
- Is commercial use permitted?
- What attribution do you require?
- Are there any restrictions inherited from the underlying audio sources
that wouldn't be covered by the dataset license itself?
I'm evaluating it for a commercial Arabic pronunciation application and
I'd rather not use it without an explicit grant. Even a one-line answer
here would help, and it would likely help others evaluating the dataset too.
Thanks.
Hey,
- Yes, open to research use.
- No Contribution is required.
- As long as you are just evaluating, it should be fine.
Thanks for the quick reply — that's helpful.
One point I want to make sure I understood correctly. My use case is
a commercial application, and I'd be using the dataset only to measure
my model's accuracy during development. The dataset itself would never
be redistributed or shipped.
Does "open to research use" cover that, or would you consider evaluation
for a commercial product to be outside it?
If a formal license is easiest, adding an SPDX identifier to the repo
metadata (e.g. cc-by-4.0 or cc-by-nc-4.0) would settle it for everyone.
Thanks again.
