Dataset Summary
During the integration, we first performed data cleaning to remove recordings with no specific instrument labels. The filtered dataset comprises recordings of 200 types of Chinese traditional musical instruments, totaling 3,974 audio clips. On average, there are approximately 20 audio clips per instrument. The data structure of the integrated dataset consists of three columns: an audio column containing audio files in .wav format, all sampled at a uniform rate of 22,050 Hz, a label column with 200 categories corresponding to the Chinese pinyin of the instrument names, and an additional column for the Chinese instrument names. This integrated dataset can be utilized for tasks such as Chinese instrument recognition or instrument acoustic analysis.
