+ ## Generating Dataset
50
+
51
+ For generating the dataset launch:
52
+ 1. generate_urls.py - to generate video URLs based on channel_urls.txt
53
+ 2. generate_dataset.py - for generating dataset (can take a lot of time...)
54
+ 3. polish_dataset.py - for cleaning the folders without any useful data

56
+ ## Usage
57
+
58
+ The SoundHarvest dataset can be utilized for a variety of applications, including:
59
+
60
+ ### 1. Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR)
61
+
62
+ Train ASR models to convert spoken language into text. SoundHarvest provides diverse language samples, making it suitable for multilingual ASR tasks.
63
+
64
+ ### 2. Multilingual Natural Language Processing (NLP)
65
+
66
+ Leverage the dataset for multilingual NLP tasks, such as:
67
+
68
+ - Speech sentiment analysis.
69
+ - Language identification.
70
+
71
+ ### 3. Linguistic Research and Analysis
72
+
73
+ Conduct linguistic research and analysis to explore various aspects of languages, including phonetics, dialects, and language evolution.
74
+
75
+ ### 4. Speech-to-Speech Translation
76
+
77
+ Use the dataset to develop and evaluate speech-to-speech translation models. Translate spoken content from one language to another, expanding the dataset's applications to cross-lingual communication.
