### Dataset Summary

This is the version of the Bokmål part of the Norwegian NST dataset used for testing the models
 in the paper *Improving Generalization of Norwegian ASR with Limited Linguistic Resources* presented at NoDaLiDa 2023.
It only contains segments of a length < 15 sec and only the test set. For a full version of the NST, see [this repository](https://huggingface.co/datasets/NbAiLab/NST).

### Languages

Norwegian Bokmål


## Dataset Creation

### Source Data
The full version of this dataset is found in [the repository of the Norwegian Language Bank](https://www.nb.no/sprakbanken/en/resource-catalogue/oai-nb-no-sbr-54/)

#### Initial Data Collection and Normalization

The data was retrieved using the [Spraakbanken downloader](https://pypi.org/project/spraakbanken-downloader/) and standardized
 using the [combined dataset standardization scripts](https://github.com/scribe-project/asr-standardized-combined). Bokmål segments with a duration < 15 seconds were
 extracted using [this code](https://github.com/scribe-project/nodalida_2023_combined_training/blob/main/make_datasets/make_nst_csvs.ipynb).
