Die Schweizer Dialektsammlung

SwissNLP is running a large-scale collection of spoken Swiss German dialects together with ZHAW and FHNW. The goal of the project is to collect 2000 hours of spoken Swiss German with transcriptions in high German to then train models that could be applied for automatic customer support, voice assistants, subtitling and many other tasks. These would be the very first models for Swiss German, overcoming the lack of data for this language that almost 5 million people call their mother tongue.

If you want to know more about it and/or would like to contribute to this historical Switzerland-wide collection of data, please follow this link.

For any questions about the project please contact info@swissnlp.org.
