πŸ“‚ Dataset Organization

The dataset is structured into several compressed files:

  • β€”image.zip: First-frame images from slide videos (used for OCR and vision-language models).
  • β€”processed_test.zip processed_val.zip processed_train.zip: Processed data with 16 kHz audio, 96Γ—96 25-frame lip-reading videos, and JSON annotations.
  • β€”train.zip, test.zip, val.zip: Data split into training, testing, and validation sets. Each contains:
  β”œβ”€β”€ ID1_age_gender_topic/
  β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ WAV/
  β”‚   β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ ID1_age_gender_topic_001.json  # Annotation file
  β”‚   β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ ID1_age_gender_topic_001.wav   # Audio file (48 kHz)
  β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ PPT/
  β”‚   β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ ID1_age_gender_topic_001_PPT.mp4  # Slide video (1080p 30fps)
  β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ FACE/
  β”‚   β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ ID1_age_gender_topic_001_FACE.mp4  # Lip-reading video (720p 30fps)
  β”œβ”€β”€ ...
  • β€”meta_all.csv, meta_train.csv, meta_valid.csv, meta_test.csv: Metadata files with ID, TOPIC, WAV, PPT, FACE, and TEXT fields.

The TOPIC field is abbreviated in Chinese as follows: DZJJ = E-sports & Gaming, JKYS = Health & Wellness, KJ = Science & Technology, LY = Travel & Exploration, QC = Automobile & Industry, RWLS = Culture & History, TY = Sports & Competitions, YS = Movies & TV Series, ZX = Others.

  • β€”meta_test.json: Includes OCR and InternVL2 prompts for the test set.
  wav_path: Path to the audio file.
  ppt_path: Path to the first-frame image of the slide video.
  ocr_text: Text extracted by PaddleOCR.
  vl2_text: Text extracted by InternVL2.
  gt_text: Ground truth transcription of the audio.
  ocr_vl2_text: OCR text reprocessed by InternVL2 (not a concatenation of PaddleOCR and InternVL2 results).
