Splits

Splits are organized by recording source and acoustic category. Prefixes denote source type:

  • —real_: real-recorded speech
  • —syn_: synthetic speech

Available categories are noise, far_field, obstructed, distortion, recording, echo, dropout, and mixed.

Example split names:

text
real_noise
syn_noise
real_mixed
syn_mixed

Fields

  • —audio: embedded audio feature.
  • —file_name: release-relative audio file name.
  • —audio_path: release-relative audio path.
  • —question: transcription instruction.
  • —answer: reference transcription.
  • —text: same as answer, provided for ASR tooling compatibility.
  • —subset: original subset label.
  • —prediction: empty placeholder for model outputs.
  • —name: sample name.
  • —index: sample index.

Usage

python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset(
    "zhifeixie/Voices-in-the-Wild-Bench",
    split="syn_noise",
)

sample = dataset[0]
audio = sample["audio"]
reference = sample["answer"]

Evaluation

We report CER for Chinese samples and WER for English samples. See the project repository and leaderboard for evaluation scripts, model wrappers, and submission instructions:
