# librivox_indonesia

The LibriVox Indonesia dataset consists of MP3 audio and a corresponding text file we generated from the public domain audiobooks LibriVox. 

We collected only languages in Indonesia for this dataset. 

The original LibriVox audiobooks or sound files' duration varies from a few minutes to a few hours. 

Each audio file in the speech dataset now lasts from a few seconds to a maximum of 20 seconds.

We converted the audiobooks to speech datasets using the forced alignment software we developed. 

It supports multilingual, including low-resource languages, such as Acehnese, Balinese, or Minangkabau. 

We can also use it for other languages without additional work to train the model.

The dataset currently consists of 8 hours in 7 languages from Indonesia. 

We will add more languages or audio files as we collect them.

## Dataset Usage

Run `pip install nusacrowd` before loading the dataset through HuggingFace's `load_dataset`.
