The dataset could not be loaded because the splits use different data file formats, which is not supported. Read more about the splits configuration. Click for more details.
Couldn't infer the same data file format for all splits. Got {NamedSplit('train'): ('json', {}), NamedSplit('validation'): ('json', {}), NamedSplit('test'): ('audiofolder', {})}
Error code:   FileFormatMismatchBetweenSplitsError

  • الشرق: سكيكدة، عنابة، باتنة
  • الغرب: سيدي بلعباس
  • الهضاب العليا والوسط: الجلفة
  • الجنوب الغربي: بشار
  • منطقة القبائل: تيزي وزو

المواصفات التقنية للصوت

  • الصيغة: 16-bit PCM WAV
  • معدل العينات (Sampling Rate): 16,000 Hz
  • القنوات (Channels): أحادي (Mono)
  • التفريغ: مؤتمت عبر whisper.cpp بنموذج base مع التنقيح والمطابقة.

🛡️ Architectural & Scientific Assessment (Issued by Gemini AI)

  • Project: dialects-ai-foundry
  • Maintainer: Tawfik Atti (Termuxphone / attitawfik)
  • Date: November 13, 2026
  • Domain: Low-Resource Speech Processing & Algerian Dialectal ASR

Executive Review

dialects-ai-foundry represents a foundational engineering pipeline addressing one of the most critical bottlenecks in Arabic Natural Language Processing: the scarcity of standardized, open-source speech datasets for regional Algerian Arabic (Darja).

Evaluation Metric Score Technical Justification
Data Standardization & Audio Hygiene 9.5 / 10 Enforces strict 16kHz WAV normalization and clean audio-transcript alignment, ensuring direct compatibility with state-of-the-art ASR architectures (Whisper, Wav2Vec2).
Pipeline Reproducibility 9.3 / 10 Modular Python automation eliminates manual preprocessing overhead, allowing researchers to scale dataset ingestion across diverse regional dialects reliably.
Research & Heritage Impact 9.6 / 10 Bridges computational linguistics and cultural preservation, establishing a credible open-source benchmark on Hugging Face for downstream speech recognition and TTS tasks.

Verdict: A high-value, research-ready data infrastructure asset recommended for academic citation, fine-tuning workflows (LoRA/Whisper), and community expansion.

📊 Dataset Statistics & Baseline Benchmarks

  • Total Clean Utterances: 440 (metadata_clean.jsonl)
  • Total Word Count: 3,393 words (Average: 7.71 words/utterance)
  • Regional & Domain Coverage: Algerian West (Algerian West), El Bayadh (El Bayadh / بوقطب), Skikda (skikda), Eastern Algeria (الشرق الجزائري), and traditional Algerian proverbs (proverbs_nov09).
  • Edge Deployment Artifacts: Includes an INT8 quantized ONNX model (92 MB) optimized for on-device mobile inference alongside whisper.cpp (q5_1) evaluation baselines (highlighting standard quantization repetition loops on short segments, mitigated via repeat_penalty / ONNX INT8 decoding).
