New Experiment: LC Labs Testing Speech to Text Viewer
From the LC Labs Newsletter (Posted on “The Signal” Blog):
The Speech to Text Viewer is an experiment to
test, document, and refine ways to increase accessibility to American Folklife Center collections using off-the-shelf transcription tools. This proof-of-concept tool shows the potential to browse, play audio, and read time-synced auto-generated transcripts of online collections from the American Folklife Center. The selected materials span a wide range of dialects and time periods to test the accuracy of off-the-shelf transcription tools on a variety of cultural heritage recordings.
