# JP-HomophoneBench

A deterministic Japanese ASR benchmark index for separating eight error/disambiguation classes:

- `exact_homophone`
- `near_homophone`
- `voicing`
- `long_vowel`
- `geminate`
- `moraic_nasal`
- `pitch_accent`
- `semantic_only`

## Important design rule

This repository is metadata-first. Source audio is **not redistributed by default**. Each row stores source repository/config/split/row identifiers so audio can be rehydrated under the original source license.

`exact_homophone` and `semantic_only` are intentionally separate. A phoneme scorer is not expected to solve `semantic_only` by itself.

HF repository: `saeeew/JP-HomophoneBench`
Most recently published configuration: `homophone8`
Publication license policy: `permissive`

## Available configurations

- `homophone8`
- `homophone8-research`

## Published rows in this run

### Splits

- `train`: 111
- `validation`: 9
- `test`: 11

### Categories

- `exact_homophone`: 10
- `geminate`: 3
- `long_vowel`: 3
- `moraic_nasal`: 3
- `near_homophone`: 7
- `pitch_accent`: 92
- `semantic_only`: 10
- `voicing`: 3

### Upstream sources

- `HaitongSUN/prosodic-abx`: 92
- `JP-HomophoneBench/permissive-phonetic-core`: 19
- `manual-cc0-example`: 20

## Licensing and provenance

The combined benchmark uses `license: other` because rows retain their upstream license. Inspect `source.license` before redistribution or commercial use.

## Loading

```python
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("saeeew/JP-HomophoneBench", "homophone8")
print(ds)
