Transcribing audio data: raw transcripts from several transcription tools

This record contains a Dutch audio fragment and the raw transcripts from several automatic audio transcription tools. The audio fragment was recorded specifically for the purpose of testing these tools and was run through:

Amberscript

HappyScribe

Kaldi

NVIVO transcription

Sonix

SpokenOnline

Transcribe

Trint

Microsoft Word 365 Online

The raw transcripts were downloaded as .docx or .txt files and the .docx files saved as .odt. No edits to the transcripts were made before saving them, except an incidental removal of a personal email address or hyperlink. For comparison purposes, the audio file itself ("Test_interview_20220203.mp3") and a clean transcript ("Test_interview_cleaned_transcript.odt") are also made available.

At the time you are downloading these files, the quality of the (Dutch) speech-to-text conversion may have been improved by the respective supplier. For maximum clarity, each filename therefore includes the date on which the transcription was run (YYYY-MM-DD format).
