Mozilla Common Voice Dataset: More data, more languages
Does this dataset include people with voice or speech disorders (or other disabilities)? I don’t see any mention of it in this announcement or the forums, though I haven’t looked thoroughly (yet).<p>Examples: dysphonias of various kinds, dysarthria (e.g. from ALS &#x2F; cerebral palsy), vocal fold atrophy, stuttering, people with laryngectomies &#x2F; voice prosthesis, and many more.<p>Altogether, this represents millions of people for whom current speech recognition systems do not work well. This is an especially tragic situation, since people with disabilities depend more heavily on assistive technologies like ASR. Data&#x2F;ML bias is rightfully a hot topic lately, so I feel that the voices of people w&#x2F; disabilities need to be amplified as well (npi).
