Usage

Each entry in dataset.jsonl contains:

  • filename: Relative path to the audio file
  • duration: Duration in seconds
  • transcription: Text transcription of the audio
  • speaker: Speaker ID (3-letter code)

Loading the Dataset

import json
import librosa

# Load dataset metadata
with open('dataset.jsonl', 'r', encoding='utf-8') as f:
    dataset = [json.loads(line) for line in f]

# Load an audio file
audio_path = dataset[0]['filename']
audio, sr = librosa.load(audio_path, sr={sample_rate})
transcription = dataset[0]['transcription']
speaker = dataset[0]['speaker']

Statistics

  • Total Duration: {total_hours:.2f} hours
  • Average File Duration: {(total_hours * 3600 / file_count):.1f} seconds
  • Files: {file_count:,} audio files
  • Multiple speakers: Selected from train/dev/test splits
