ASR Model Training Data for ML Research Groups
Academic and industrial research teams building benchmarks and studying low-resource Indian languages, where documentation and reproducibility matter as much as volume. Building or fine-tuning speech recognition for Indian languages from scratch or from a multilingual base model.

Where the two meet
Low-resource languages have no usable public data at all That is a asr model training problem, and it is solved by data shaped like this:
- Hundreds to thousands of hours of verbatim-transcribed speech
- Wide speaker diversity: age, gender, region, education, recording condition
- Speaker-disjoint train/dev/test splits
Your evaluation criteria
- Is the collection protocol documented well enough to publish?
- Are speaker demographics reported in aggregate for dataset cards?
- Can the data be released openly, and under what consent terms?
Metrics
- Word error rate overall and per dialect
- Entity error rate on names and numbers
- Code-switch token accuracy
Pitfalls
- Read-speech-only corpora that do not transfer to spontaneous audio
- Speaker leakage across splits inflating reported accuracy
- Normalised-only transcripts with the raw text discarded
Contract points
- Open-release-compatible consent
- Dataset card material provided with delivery
- Attribution and citation terms
Frequently asked
What does a first engagement look like?
Usually a scoped pilot: one language, an evaluation set plus a first training batch, delivered in three to five weeks, followed by the full programme.
Can you match our existing vendor's schema?
Yes. Working to your schema avoids a conversion pass and keeps deliveries comparable across vendors.
How is provenance documented?
Per-item contributor records and consent mapped to IDs in the manifest.
