Dataset Card for WenetSpeech4TTS
WenetSpeech4TTS is a multi-domain Mandarin corpus derived from the open-sourced WenetSpeech dataset. Tailored for the text-to-speech tasks, we refined WenetSpeech by adjusting segment boundaries, enhancing the audio quality, and eliminating speaker mixing within each segment. Following a more accurate transcription process and quality-based data filtering process, the obtained WenetSpeech4TTS corpus contains 12,800 hours of paired audio-text data. Furthermore, we have created subsets of varying sizes, categorized by segment quality scores to allow for TTS model training and finetuning.
VALL-E and NaturalSpeech 2 systems are trained and fine-tuned on these subsets, establishing benchmarks for the usability of WenetSpeech4TTS and the fair comparison of TTS systems. We make the corpus and corresponding benchmarks publicly available to advance research in this field. We provide audio-text pairs and DNSMOS P.808 scores for all audios in WenetSpeech4TTS. The checkpoints for VALL-E and NaturalSpeech 2 will be released soon.

Consistent with WenetSpeech, WenetSpeech4TTS doesn't own the copyright of the audios, the copyright remains with the original owners of the video or audio, and the public URL is given in WenetSpeech for the original video or audio.
Download
For researchers and educators who wish to use the audio files for non-commercial research and/or educational purposes, we can provide access through our site under certain conditions and terms.
Notice: In order to facilitate the individual download and use needs of researchers, we organize the dataset into different directories according to Premium, Standard and Basic subsets, but the data in their package files do not overlap with each other. Therefore, if you want to use the WenetSpeech4TTS Basic subset, you should download all the package files in the Premium, Standard, and Basic directories; if you want to use the WenetSpeech4TTS Standard subset, you should download all the package files in the Premium and Standard directories.
Dataset Structure
The dataset is structured into directories corresponding to each quality subset, each containing TAR.GZ archives of audio files and their corresponding transcription text files. Checksum files are provided for verification. The structure facilitates easy downloading and usage in research settings.

Data format
Audio file (.wav):
Channels: 1
Sample Rate: 16000
Sample Encoding: 16-bit Signed Integer PCM
Each text file (.txt) includes the transcript corresponding to the speech and the timestamp of each word in the transcript.
<Utt_id>\t<Text>\n
\t<Timestamps>
The filelist of each set contains the relative paths of the wav and txt files for all metadata in the set.
<Utt_id1>\t<wavpath1>\t<txtpath1>\n
<Utt_id2>\t<wavpath2>\t<txtpath2>\n
<Utt_id3>\t<wavpath3>\t<txtpath3>\n
...
The DNSMOS_lst of each set contains the DNSMOS P808 scores of all metadata in the set. We floor all scores to one decimal place.
<Utt_id1>\t<score1>\n
<Utt_id2>\t<score2>\n
<Utt_id3>\t<score3>\n
...
Uses

You can directly download the .tar.gz file and the filelist, or use datasets.load() to access the dataset.
In our experiments, we used the
SoXprogram to normalize the audio volume and found that it helped improve the synthesis quality, so we recommend researchers to perform volume normalization on the audio data and then use it to train the model.

Dataset Creation
Curation Rationale
WenetSpeech4TTS enhances the WenetSpeech dataset by improving audio quality and transcription accuracy to better serve TTS research and applications.
[More Information Needed]
Source Data
Sourced from YouTube and Podcasts, the original WenetSpeech data was meticulously processed to create WenetSpeech4TTS.
Data Collection and Processing
From WenetSpeech to WenetSpeech4TTS, we designed an automatic pipeline containing multiple processing steps. Specifically, we refined WenetSpeech for TTS by merging segments based on speaker similarity and pause duration, and by expanding segment boundaries to prevent truncated words. Audio quality was enhanced using the denoising model, followed by quality scoring. Furthermore, a speaker diarization system clustered segments from the same speaker, while a more advanced ASR system provided more accurate transcriptions.
Annotation process
We use the open-source industrial-level Paraformer-large system to obtain text transcriptions for the speech segments, this model achieved a 6.74% character error rate (CER) on the WenetSpeech “Test Net” set.
