  title = {Buckeye {Corpus} of {Conversational} {Speech} (2nd release).},
  url = {www.buckeyecorpus.osu.edu},
  publisher = {Columbus, OH: Department of Psychology, Ohio State University (Distributor)},

### Usage

The first step is to download a copy of the dataset from [the official website](https://buckeyecorpus.osu.edu). Once done, the dataset can be loaded directly through the `datasets` library by running:

```
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("bhigy/buckeye_asr", data_dir=<path_to_the_dataset>)
```

where `<path_to_the_dataset>` points to the folder where the dataset is stored. An example of path to one of the audio files is then `<path_to_the_dataset>/s01/s0101a.wav`.
