LoReHLT Hausa Representative Language Pack

LoReHLT Hausa Representative Language Pack consists of Hausa monolingual text, Hausa-English parallel text, annotations, amateur web audio recordings, supplemental resources and related software tools developed by the Linguistic Data Consortium for LoReHLT, a companion project of the DARPA LORELEI program. The LORELEI (Low Resource Languages for Emergent Incidents) program was concerned with building human language technology for low resource languages in the context of emergent situations like natural disasters or disease outbreaks. Linguistic resources for LORELEI include Representative Language Packs and Incident Language Packs for over two dozen low resource languages, comprising data, annotations, basic natural language processing tools, lexicons and grammatical resources. Representative languages were selected to provide broad typological coverage, while incident languages were selected to evaluate system performance on a language whose identity was disclosed at the start of the evaluation.
