### Dataset Summary

VIVOS is a free Vietnamese speech corpus consisting of 15 hours of recording speech prepared for Vietnamese Automatic Speech Recognition task.

The corpus was prepared by AILAB, a computer science lab of VNUHCM - University of Science, with Prof. Vu Hai Quan is the head of.

We publish this corpus in hope to attract more scientists to solve Vietnamese speech recognition problems.

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

A typical data point comprises the path to the audio file, called `path` and its transcription, called `sentence`. Some additional information about the speaker and the passage which contains the transcription is provided.

```
{'speaker_id': 'VIVOSSPK01',
 'path': '/home/admin/.cache/huggingface/datasets/downloads/extracted/b7ded9969e09942ab65313e691e6fc2e12066192ee8527e21d634aca128afbe2/vivos/train/waves/VIVOSSPK01/VIVOSSPK01_R001.wav',
 'sentence': 'KHÁCH SẠN'}
```

### Data Fields

- speaker_id: An id for which speaker (voice) made the recording
- path: The path to the audio file
- sentence: The sentence the user was prompted to speak

### Data Splits

The speech material has been subdivided into portions for train and test.

Speech was recorded in a quiet environment with high quality microphone, speakers were asked to read one sentence at a time.

|                  | Train | Test  |
| ---------------- | ----- | ----- |
| Speakers         | 46    | 19    | 
| Utterances       | 11660 | 760   |
| Duration         | 14:55 | 00:45 |
| Unique Syllables | 4617  | 1692  |
