ποΈ Vaani: Curated Indian-English + Hindi Speech Corpus
A small, hand-curated single-speaker speech corpus (~62 minutes, 285 clips) for expressive Text-to-Speech. Real Indian voices, accurate transcripts, and emotion tags reviewed by ear.
Built as a data-quality and curation exercise: the pipeline is simple by design; the real work is in the listening, correcting, and selecting.
β¨ Highlights
- π£οΈ Two real Indian speakers, one consistent voice per language. No synthetic / AI narration.
- π§ Clean, studio-grade audio (no background music), verified with VAD and diarization.
- π Two transcripts per clip: verbatim and TTS-normalized.
- π Emotion / style tags across 8 categories.
- π Full provenance: every clip carries its
source_urlandlicense.

π οΈ How it was built
YouTube audio (yt-dlp) -> ffmpeg standardize (24 kHz mono) -> Sarvam
diarization single-speaker check -> Silero-VAD segmentation -> Sarvam ASR
(saaras:v3) drafts -> human listening, correction and emotion tagging ->
Sarvam LLM text normalization -> automated QC gates (SNR, loudness, peak,
bandwidth, duration). Full pipeline and curation log are in the GitHub repository.
π Licensing and provenance
Audio is sourced from YouTube for research and educational use. Every clip
records its source_url, creator and license. The sources are under YouTube's
standard license (not Creative Commons); curation prioritised audio quality
(clean, single, real-human Indian voices) over license filtering. This dataset
claims no ownership of the source audio and will honour any removal request.
β οΈ Limitations
Small corpus, built to demonstrate curation quality rather than scale. Emotion coverage reflects the chosen speakers (the English physics lectures skew neutral). Emotion labels are subjective guidance, not ground truth. Not validated for production training.
