Corpus description

Nos_Telexornal-GL is an ASR corpus of more than 1,100 hours of automatically transcribed and aligned speech using Google Chirp2. This corpus was created from audio of Galician news between 2019 and 2022. The content belongs to the Galician Public Television and Radio Corporation (public broadcaster for the autonomous community of Galicia) and the data is released according to their terms of use.

The corpus is split into two subcorpora, clean and other. To ensure high-quality transcriptions, the Chirp2 transcriptions where compared with Mozilla's Whisper-large-v3-gl, and only those of WER lower than 15% between models where selected for the clean subcorpus, whereas the other subcorpus comprises the segments that were discarded in the filtering process. A manual review was also conducted to correct the most serious errors. The details of both subcorpora can be found in the table below:

Subcorpus No. of hours No. of segments
clean 662.17 87,336
other 509.93 60,186
Total 1,172.1 147,522

For each subcorpora, we provide three splits: train, dev and test. Test and dev splits contain 15 hours of audio. The repository structure is as follows: the root folder contains all the segments, divided into clean and other, and also split into train, dev and test for each subcorpora. Each segment has the following fields:

  • filename: the name of the audio file.
  • audio: audio file.
  • sentence: the transcript of the audio file.

The other subcorpus contains some audio files that are several minutes long and others that are too short, so a filtering process may be necessary before training.
