Propicto-orféo

📝 Dataset Description

Propicto-orféo is a dataset of aligned speech-id/transcription/pictograms (the pictograms correspond to the identifier associated with an ARASAAC pictogram) in French. It was created from the CEFC-Orféo corpus. This dataset was presented in the research paper titled "A Multimodal French Corpus of Aligned Speech, Text, and Pictogram Sequences for Speech-to-Pictogram Machine Translation" at LREC-Coling 2024. The dataset was split into training, validation, and test sets.

Propicto-orféo contains three CSV files : train, valid and test, with the following statistics :

Split	Number of utterances
train	231 374
valid	28 796
test	29 009

⚒️ Dataset Structure

Each file contains the following information :

clips : the unique identifier of the utterance, which corresponds to a unique audio clip file (in wav) for the orféo dataset
text : the transcription of the audio clip
pictos : the sequence of id pictograms from ARASAAC
tokens : the sequence of tokens, each of them is the keyword associated to the ARASAAC id pictogram

💡 Dataset example

For the given sample :

clips : cefc-cfpb-1000-5-1186
text : tu essayes de mélanger les deux
pictos : [6625, 26144, 7074, 5515, 5367]
tokens : toi essayer de mélanger à_côté_de

• The clips is from the Orféo subcorpus CFPB, 1000-5, with the sentence ID 1186.
  
• The text is the associated transcription, in en : “you try to mix the two”.
  
• pictos is the sequence of pictogram IDs, each of them can be retrieved from here : 6625 = https://static.arasaac.org/pictograms/6625/6625_2500.png
  
• tokens are retrieved from a specific lexicon and can be used to train translation models.

💻 Uses

Propicto-orféo is intended to be used to train Speech-to-Pictograms translation and Text-to-Pictograms translation models. This dataset can also be used to fine-tune large language models to perform translation into pictograms.

⚙️ Dataset Creation

The dataset is created by applying a specific formalism that converts french oral transcriptions into a corresponding sequence of pictograms.
The formalism includes a set of grammatical rules to handle specific phenomenon (negation, name entities, pronominal form, plural, ...) to the French language, as well as a dictionary which associates each ARASAAC ID pictogram with a set of keywords (tokens).
This formalism was presented at LREC.

Source Data : conversations / meetings / daily life situations (oral transcriptions)

⁉️ Limitations

The translation can be partially incorrect, due to incorrect or missing words translated into pictograms.
