The french subset of the dataset Multilingual TEDx. The data uploaded to HF corresponds to the directory fr-fr. The audio files are automatically resampled to 16 kHz.

Configs:

  • single_samples (default): all samples taken separately
  • max=30s: combine consecutive samples for a period shorter than 30 seconds
  • max=10s: combine consecutive samples for a period shorter than 10 seconds
  • max: combine all the samples of a TEDx talk

dependencies (only needed for much faster audio decoding):

  • ffmpeg: apt install ffmpeg
  • ffmpeg-python: pip install ffmpeg-python
