Throat Microphone Dataset

Dataset Summary

A high-quality dataset of throat microphone (laryngophone) recordings specifically designed for fine-tuning Whisper and other speech recognition models. The dataset consists of carefully selected English sentences recorded using a throat microphone, which captures speech through vibrations in the throat rather than air-conducted sound.

Supported Tasks

This dataset is suitable for:

Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR)
Speech-to-Text
Voice Activity Detection
Throat Microphone Adaptation

Languages

The dataset contains English-language recordings only.

Dataset Structure

Data Instances

Each instance in the dataset contains:

audio: A dictionary containing the audio data:
- bytes: The raw audio bytes
- path: Path to the audio file
- sampling_rate: 16000 (16kHz)
text: The transcription of the audio
duration: Length of the audio in seconds

Data Fields

audio: Audio file in WAV format (16kHz mono)
text: String containing the transcription
duration: Float value representing duration in seconds

Data Splits

The dataset is provided as a single training split.

Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

This dataset was created to address the lack of high-quality throat microphone data for training speech recognition models. Throat microphones are particularly useful in noisy environments as they capture speech directly through throat vibrations.

Source Data

Initial Data Collection and Normalization

Sentences were carefully selected to ensure:

Complexity suitable for model training (12-25 words)
Proper grammar and punctuation
Mix of statement types
Natural language patterns
Varied vocabulary
Balanced phonetic content

Annotations

The annotations (transcriptions) are the original sentences used for recording, ensuring 100% accuracy.

Considerations for Using the Data

Social Impact of Dataset

This dataset can help improve speech recognition in:

High-noise environments
Military and emergency services communications
Industrial settings
Assistive technology for voice disorders

Discussion of Biases

The dataset:

Contains only English language
Uses standard English pronunciation
May not represent all accents or dialects
Recorded by a limited number of speakers

Other Known Limitations

Limited to throat microphone recordings
May not generalize well to regular microphone input
Fixed recording duration of approximately 10 seconds per utterance
