### Dataset Summary
This corpus includes 240 hours of Catalan speech from broadcast material.
The details of segmentation, data processing and also model training are explained in Külebi, Öktem; 2018.
The content is owned by Corporació Catalana de Mitjans Audiovisuals, SA (CCMA);
we processed their material and hereby making it available under their terms of use.
This project was supported by the Softcatalà Association.
### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
The dataset can be used for:
- Language Modeling.
- Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) transcribes utterances into words.
### Languages
The dataset is in Catalan (`ca`).
## Dataset Structure
### Data Instances
```
{
'path': 'tv3_0.3/wav/train/5662515_1492531876710/5662515_1492531876710_120.180_139.020.wav',
'audio': {'path': 'tv3_0.3/wav/train/5662515_1492531876710/5662515_1492531876710_120.180_139.020.wav',

'sampling_rate': 16000},
'text': 'algunes montoneres que que et feien anar ben col·locat i el vent també hi jugava una mica de paper bufava vent de cantó alguns cops o de cul i el pelotón el vent el porta molt malament hi havia molts nervis'
}
```
### Data Fields
- `path` (str): Path to the audio file.
- `audio` (dict): A dictionary containing the path to the downloaded audio file, the decoded audio array, and the sampling
rate. Note that when accessing the audio column: `dataset[0]["audio"]` the audio file is automatically decoded and
resampled to `dataset.features["audio"].sampling_rate`. Decoding and resampling of a large number of audio files might
take a significant amount of time. Thus, it is important to first query the sample index before the `"audio"` column,
*i.e.* `dataset[0]["audio"]` should **always** be preferred over `dataset["audio"][0]`.
- `text` (str): Transcription of the audio file.
### Data Splits
The dataset is split into "train" and "test".
