Speech-AI teams testing African French recognition
Worth noticing
The current sample lists 21 speakers, 840 recordings and 122.8 minutes gathered in Cotonou and surroundings.

Field notes

The collection table divides its 122.8 minutes among read sentences, picture descriptions and free talk, with spontaneous speech making up 55% of the audio. The page says local coordinators record speakers, sessions are reviewed by hand, and about one in five recordings is rejected for noise or quality. It also says transcripts retain local words and that speaker names are not published.
