# BAYƐLƐMABAGA: Parallel French - Bambara Dataset for Machine Learning

## Overview
The Bayelemabaga dataset is a collection of 46976 aligned machine translation ready Bambara-French lines, originating from [Corpus Bambara de Reference](http://cormande.huma-num.fr/corbama/run.cgi/first_form). The dataset is constitued of text extracted from **264** text files, varing from periodicals, books, short stories, blog posts, part of the Bible and the Quran.

| French Types | 32018 |
| Bambara Types | 29382 |
| Avg. Fr line length | 77.6 |
| Avg. Bam line length | 61.69 |
