Kashmiri Single Speaker TTS Corpus
Overview
This repository provides a single-speaker Kashmiri Text-to-Speech (TTS) corpus in Perso-Arabic script. The dataset consists of paired speech recordings and text transcriptions intended for training and evaluating neural text-to-speech systems. All recordings were produced by a single male native Kashmiri speaker.

Source Dataset
This Hugging Face dataset is a structured redistribution of the publicly available KTTS Single Speaker Dataset. The original dataset contains 2,984 single-speaker Kashmiri recordings sampled at 48 kHz together with aligned text transcriptions. It was created to support the development of Kashmiri text-to-speech systems and was recorded using a single male speaker after text collection and quality filtering.
