squaredcuber/animacy-human-motion-large

Canonical human conversational motion (animacy.human.v1, 30 Hz) captured at scale with animacy — the open interaction layer for expressive robots. Every clip is a directory clips/<shard>/<name>/ holding

  • motion.parquet — 28 channels: head 6-DoF, gaze, brows, eyes, mouth, torso, a puppet arm chain, speaking / validity flags (schema: docs/CANONICAL.md in the repo);
  • audio.opus — the clip's audio, mono, Opus 32 kb/s from the 16 kHz capture track, on the same clock as motion.t (ffmpeg -i audio.opus -ar 16000 -ac 1 audio.wav restores the 16 kHz wav that animacy.schema.HumanClip.load reads);
  • meta.json — source url, license and the machine-readable license evidence, capture settings, neutral pose, validity stats, and a harvest block (source family, channel, speaker key, language guess, chunk offset, prescreen result).

index.json is one row per clip (all shards). manifests/<shard>.json is the same for one commit.

26 clips, 2.9 hours (2.7 face-valid hours), 2 speaker keys, 2 languages.

License policy (enforced in code, not remembered per file)

Only material whose machine-readable license metadata says public domain / CC0 / CC-BY is captured; anything ND, NC, SA, or with missing license metadata is refused (scripts/fetch_sources.py::classify_license, applied by scripts/harvest/fetch.py). Evidence per source:

source evidence recorded in meta.json.license_evidence
YouTube (CC search) info-json license == "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)" (CC-BY 3.0), channel id, upload date
U.S. Government channels allowlisted official agency channel + channel id match; basis 17 U.S.C. § 105 (works of the U.S. Government). VOA clips carry a caveat about third-party newswire material
Wikimedia Commons videoinfo.extmetadata LicenseShortName / License / LicenseUrl / Copyrighted=False
archive.org item metadata licenseurl / rights

Attribution: every clip's meta.json has source_url, artist/channel, and the license label; CC-BY clips must be credited to that channel/author when redistributed. This dataset is a derived work (motion parameters + downsampled audio), not the source video.

Quality gate

Chunks of <= 600 s; prescreen (>= 60% of 16 sampled frames show exactly one face); kept if face_valid >= 60% and face_valid * duration >= 60 s. No channel contributes more than 5% of the kept seconds (fetch-time cap). Speaker keys over-merge (a channel = one speaker), so a per-speaker cap at training time is conservative.

Provenance and reproducibility

Harvested by scripts/harvest/ (crawl -> fetch -> workers -> push) on a CPU-only workstation; the harvest block in each meta.json names the worker and chunk. Full pipeline description: docs/HARVEST.md. Nothing here was captured from a source whose license metadata was missing.
