Uzbek Speech Commands Dataset
Uzbek speech commands sourced to your specification — no inventory, no fixed listing. This page covers what is specifically hard about this pairing, and which fields your specification needs to pin down.
Why speech commands in Uzbek is its own problem
Command word design for Uzbek runs straight into the vocabulary split: most device commands have a Russian-derived form that older and urban users actually say and a Turkic-root coinage that schools and official usage promote. Neither is wrong, and which one a user reaches for tracks age and schooling. Build the list from only the official coinages and wake rates come in below expectation; build it from only the Russian forms and the list contradicts the orthography buyers expect.
The field to pin down first: Every command entry needs both the Russian-derived and the native coinage variant, with the age distribution of speakers recorded per entry — the word list cannot be locked until both forms are covered.

What speech commands data is
Targeted recordings of short command words or phrases, usually with many speakers reading each entry several times over, used for wake words and on-device command recognition.
What buyers get wrong about it
What buyers consistently underestimate is the repetition count — a single command entry needs at least a few dozen distinct speakers, each reading it multiple times, to cover pronunciation variation.
The specification field that decides the quote
Once the word list is locked it cannot change; adding words midway means starting a new batch.
The language side: what Uzbek demands
Uzbek is officially written in Latin script, but a large share of existing corpora is in Cyrillic. The conversion rules between the two leave a few letters without a clean one-to-one mapping, so conversion introduces errors.
What we can put in this delivery
-
Read and conversational speech
Scripted recording for TTS, and unscripted conversation for recognition. Specified separately because they need different speaker pools.
-
Transcription to your convention
Orthographic or phonetic, with the guideline written before production and shared with you for review.
-
Speaker metadata
Age band, gender, region and dialect background per file, so you can slice the dataset rather than take it whole.
-
Consent documentation
Signed speaker consent covering the intended use, plus collection methodology and the annotation guideline.
-
Pilot batch
A small batch first, which you can reject. Misalignments surface after a few hours rather than at delivery.
-
Delivery in your format
Audio format, sampling rate, segmentation length and metadata schema set to your pipeline's requirements.
What arrives in a delivery
| Component | What it is |
|---|---|
| Audio files | Format, sampling rate and segmentation length set to your pipeline. Named to a convention you specify. |
| Transcription | Orthographic or phonetic, produced under a guideline you review before production starts. |
| Speaker metadata | Age band, gender, region and dialect background per file, plus a speaker identifier so the dataset can be sliced. |
| Recording conditions | Environment, device and, where relevant, measured signal-to-noise ratio per file. |
| Annotation guideline | The document the annotators worked from, so you can reproduce the conventions on your own data. |
| Consent records | Signed speaker consent covering your intended use, with the transfer mechanism addressed where required. |
| Collection methodology | How speakers were recruited, screened and scheduled — the part that tells you how biased the pool is. |
| Quality report | Pilot outcome, re-work log, and the annotator agreement figures where the task supports measuring them. |
Questions we get about Uzbek Speech Commands
How many distinct speakers can you provide for Uzbek Speech Commands?
It depends on the specification and the timeline, and we will give a real number rather than a target. For this pairing, speaker recruitment is usually the step that sets the schedule. Every command entry needs both the Russian-derived and the native coinage variant, with the age distribution of speakers recorded per entry — the word list cannot be locked until both forms are covered.
Can you annotate to our own guideline instead of the default?
Yes, and for this pairing we would recommend it. Command word design for Uzbek runs straight into the vocabulary split: most device commands have a Russian-derived form that older and urban users actually say and a Turkic-root coinage that schools and official usage promote. That is exactly the kind of decision a default guideline leaves open, and it is where annotators diverge. Send us your guideline, or we will draft one and you can review it before production starts.
Do you offer a sample before we commit to a full run?
Yes. Select a free sample in the request form and describe what you need. A pilot batch is the cheapest way to establish whether the quality bar is reachable for Uzbek Speech Commands before committing to the full volume.
Is the data licensed or owned outright?
Licensing terms are set per project, so tell us how the model will be used and whether it will be distributed. Consent documentation travels with the data either way, and we do not handle medical or clinical data or recorded telephone calls.
