# Dataset Card for "AudioMNIST"
The [audioMNIST](https://github.com/soerenab/AudioMNIST) dataset has 50 English recordings per digit (0-9) of 60 speakers.
There are 60 participants in total, with 12 being women and 48 being men, all featuring a diverse range of accents and country of origin. Their ages vary from 22 to 61 years old. This is a great dataset to explore a simple audio classification problem: either the digit or the gender.

## Bias, Risks, and Limitations
* The genders represented in the dataset are unbalanced, with around 80% being men.
* The majority of the speakers, around 70%, have a German accent

### Citation Information
The original creators of the dataset ask you to cite [their paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/1807.03418) if you use this data:
