# Myanmar Spoken Corpus (Version 1.0) |
|
|
|
## Overview |
|
|
|
`Myanmar Spoken Corpus` is a high-quality, open dataset of spoken Myanmar sentences designed to support NLP and ASR applications. The dataset focuses on providing clean and structured spoken language data for advancing Myanmar language technology. |
|
|
|
## Dataset Statistics |
|
|
|
- **Number of Rows**: |
|
- Local Parquet file: **16,020,011 rows** |
|
- Hugging Face Dataset Viewer: **15,728,640 rows** |
|
- **File Size**: 1.78 GB (Parquet format) |
|
|
|
### Notes: |
|
- The difference in row counts is due to automatic processing by the Hugging Face platform, which may include deduplication or exclusion of invalid rows during dataset conversion. |
|
- The original dataset with all rows can be downloaded directly from this repository. |
|
|
|
## Key Features |
|
|
|
- **16 Million Spoken Sentences**: Filtered and refined specifically for spoken Myanmar language. |
|
