CDC Press Conferences

Utterance-level clips from Taiwan CDC (疾病管制署) press-conference YouTube livestreams (largely COVID-19 era, 2020-2023). This corpus is Mandarin, not Taiwanese -- it is one of the few non-Taiwanese-language corpora kept in this project's source bucket, included here for reference/comparison purposes only.

Dataset Structure

id: {episode_id}_{index:04}, e.g. 2020-10-14-14_00_7ibcEttw4-g_0001 -- the part before the trailing _NNNN utterance index is the source YouTube episode identifier (date + title fragment + video ID). There is no separate episode/origin column since it's always exactly this prefix of id.
audio: audio clip (16kHz, mono, 16-bit PCM WAV).
text: Mandarin transcript for the clip (originally zh in the source dataset; same language as the audio, per this project's field-naming convention).
