# VoxBox |
|
|
|
|
|
This dataset is a curated collection of bilingual speech corpora annotated clean transcriptions and rich metadata incluing age, gender, and emotion. |
|
|
|
|
|
## Dataset Structure |
|
|
|
|
|
```bash |
|
|
. |
|
|
├── audios/ |
|
|
│ └── aishell-3/ # Audio files (organised by sub-corpus) |
|
|
│ └── ... |
|
|
└── metadata/ |
|
|
├── aishell-3.jsonl |
|
|
├── casia.jsonl |
|
|
├── commonvoice_cn.jsonl |
|
|
├── ... |
|
|
└── wenetspeech4tts.jsonl # JSONL metadata files |
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
Each JSONL file corresponds to a specific corpus and contains one metadata record per audio sample. |
|
|
|
|
|
## Metadata Format |
|
|
|
|
|
Each line in the *.jsonl files is a JSON object describing one audio sample. Below is a typical example: |
|
|
|
|
|
```json |
|
|
{ |
|
|
"index": "VCTK_0000044280", |
|
|
"split": "train", |
|
|
"language": "en", |
|
|
"age": "Youth-Adult", |
|
|
"gender": "female", |
|
|
"emotion": "UNKNOWN", |
|
|
"pitch": 180.626, |
|
|
"pitch_std": 0.158, |
|
|
"speed": 4.2, |
|
|
"duration": 3.84, |
|
|
"speech_duration": 3.843, |
|
|
"syllable_num": 16, |
|
|
"text": "Clearly, the need for a personal loan is written in the stars.", |
|
|
"syllables": "K-L-IH1-R L-IY0 DH-AH0 N-IY1-D F-AO1 R-AH0 P-ER1 S-IH0 N-IH0-L L-OW1 N-IH1 Z-R-IH1 T-AH0 N-IH0-N DH-AH0-S T-AA1-R-Z", |
|
|
"wav_path": "vctk/VCTK_0000044280.flac" |
|
|
} |
|
|
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
The corresponding audio file is located inside the extracted .tar.gz archive. |
|
|
|
|
