Documentation Dataset: TTS_Multilingual_Data
Dataset Summary
This large-scale multilingual corpus is designed for linguistic analysis and the development of speech processing models. It supports tasks such as Text-to-Speech (TTS), Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), and speaker identification. Structured in Parquet format, it serves as a key resource for training and evaluating models, using metrics tailored to ASR and speech technologies.
Thematic Categories

- "TED talk"
- "political speech"
- "interview"
- "podcast"
Conversations & Dialogues
- "phone conversation"
- "spontaneous dialogue"
- "group discussion"
- "audio interview"
Media Content & Entertainment
- "radio clip"
- "radio commentary"
- "audio narration"
Instructions & Voice Assistants
- "voice commands"
- "voice assistant"
- "audio notification"
- "automated message"
Informal Language & Common Expressions
- "slang"
- "French expressions"
- "colloquial language"
- "youth speech"
- "emotions in speech"
Accessibility & Inclusion
- "speech with an accent"
- "elderly voices"
- "children speaking"
Literature & Culture
- "literature"
- "tale"
- "fable"
- "poetry"
- "novel excerpt"
Supported Tasks
- Text-to-Speech (TTS): The dataset can be used to train models for generating speech from text.
- Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR): The dataset can be used to train models for transcribing speech to text. The most common evaluation metric is the Word Error Rate (WER).
- Speaker Identification: The dataset supports tasks related to identifying speakers based on their voice.
Dataset Structure
Organisation of the Project
The dataset, TTS_Multilingual_Data, is organized as follows: containing one subfolder. The train subfolder includes data files in Parquet format (e.g., data1.parquet), while the audio subfolder contains audio files in WAV format (e.g., audio1.wav). Additionally, a readme.md file at the root level provides detailed information about the dataset's content and usage.
Columns
- audio_path (string): Path to the audio file.
- text (string): Ground truth transcription.
- duration (float64): Duration of the audio file in seconds.
- speaker_id (string or int): Identifier for the speaker.
- audio_format (string): Format of the audio file (e.g., WAV, MP3).
- sampling_rate (int): Sampling rate of the audio file.
- language (string): Language of the transcription.
- gender (string): Gender of the speaker (if available).
File Format
The dataset is delivered in Parquet format, optimized for efficient storage and processing.
