|
|
| ### KSS Dataset: Korean Single speaker Speech Dataset |
|
|
| KSS Dataset is designed for the Korean text-to-speech task. It consists of audio files recorded by a professional female voice actoress and their aligned text extracted from my books. As a copyright holder, by courtesy of the publishers, I release this dataset to the public. To my best knowledge, this is the first publicly available speech dataset for Korean. |
|
|
| ### File Format |
|
|
| Each line in `transcript.v.1.3.txt` is delimited by `|` into six fields. |
| - A. Audio file path |
| - B. Original script |
| - C. Expanded script |
| - D. Decomposed script |
| - E. Audio duration (seconds) |
| - F. English translation |
|
|
| e.g., |
|
|
| 1/1_0470.wav|저는 보통 20분 정도 낮잠을 잡니다.|저는 보통 이십 분 정도 낮잠을 잡니다.|저는 보통 이십 분 정도 낮잠을 잡니다.|4.1|I usually take a nap for 20 minutes. |
