+ # Fante Multispeaker Audio Transcribed Dataset
18
+
19
+ ## Overview
20
+ The **Fante Multispeaker Audio Transcribed** dataset is a collection of speech recordings and their transcriptions in Fante, a widely spoken dialect of the Akan language in Ghana. The dataset is designed for training and evaluating automatic speech recognition (ASR) models and other natural language processing (NLP) applications.
21
+
22
+ ## Dataset Details
23
+ - **Source**: The dataset is derived from the [Financial Inclusion Speech Dataset](https://github.com/Ashesi-Org/Financial-Inclusion-Speech-Dataset), which focuses on financial conversations in Fante.
24
+ - **Format**: The dataset consists of audio recordings (.wav) and corresponding transcriptions (.txt or .csv).
25
+ - **Speakers**: Multiple speakers contribute to the dataset, making it useful for speaker-independent ASR models.
26
+ - **Domain**: Primarily focused on financial and general conversations.
27
+
28
+ ## Splits
29
+ The dataset is divided as follows:
30
+ - **Train Set**: 90% of the data
31
+ - **Test Set**: 10% of the data
32
+
33
+ ## Use Cases
34
+ This dataset is useful for:
35
+ - Training and evaluating ASR models for Fante.
36
+ - Developing Fante language models and NLP applications.
37
+ - Linguistic analysis of Fante speech.
38
+
39
+ ## Usage
40
+ To use this dataset in your Hugging Face project, you can load it as follows:
41
+ ```python
42
+ from datasets import load_dataset
43
+
44
+ dataset = load_dataset("michsethowusu/fante_multispeaker_audio_transcribed")
45
+ ```
46
+
47
+ ## License
48
+ Refer to the original dataset repository for licensing details: [Financial Inclusion Speech Dataset](https://github.com/Ashesi-Org/Financial-Inclusion-Speech-Dataset).

+
50
+ ## Acknowledgments
51
+ This dataset is based on the work by [Ashesi-Org](https://github.com/Ashesi-Org). Special thanks to contributors who helped in data collection and annotation. **I am only making it more accessible for machine learning**.
