Dataset Card for Filtered LibriTTS-R

This is a filtered version of LibriTTS-R. It has been filtered based on two sources:

1. LibriTTS-R paper [1], which lists samples for which speech restoration have failed
2. LibriTTS-P [2] list of excluded speakers for which multiple speakers have been detected.

LibriTTS-R [1] is a sound quality improved version of the LibriTTS corpus which is a multi-speaker English corpus of approximately 585 hours of read English speech at 24kHz sampling rate, published in 2019.

Usage

Example

Loading the clean config with only the train.clean.360 split.

from datasets import load_dataset

load_dataset("blabble-io/libritts_r", "clean", split="train.clean.100")

Streaming is also supported.

from datasets import load_dataset

load_dataset("blabble-io/libritts_r", streaming=True)

Splits

There are 7 splits (dots replace dashes from the original dataset, to comply with hf naming requirements):

• dev.clean
• dev.other
• test.clean
• test.other
• train.clean.100
• train.clean.360
• train.other.500

Configurations

There are 3 configurations, each which limits the splits the load_dataset() function will download.

The default configuration is "all".

• "dev": only the "dev.clean" split (good for testing the dataset quickly)
• "clean": contains only "clean" splits
• "other": contains only "other" splits
• "all": contains only "all" splits

                   ``LibriTTS-R'' designed for text-to-speech (TTS) use. It is
                   derived by applying speech restoration to the LibriTTS
                   corpus, which consists of 585 hours of speech data at 24 kHz
                   sampling rate from 2,456 speakers and the corresponding
                   texts. The constituent samples of LibriTTS-R are identical
                   to those of LibriTTS, with only the sound quality improved.
                   Experimental results show that the LibriTTS-R ground-truth
                   samples showed significantly improved sound quality compared
                   to those in LibriTTS. In addition, neural end-to-end TTS
                   trained with LibriTTS-R achieved speech naturalness on par
                   with that of the ground-truth samples. The corpus is freely
