ManaTTS Persian: a recipe for creating TTS datasets for lower resource languages

Hugging Face

Mana-TTS is a comprehensive and large-scale Persian Text-to-Speech (TTS) dataset designed for speech synthesis and other speech-related tasks. The dataset has been carefully collected, processed, and annotated to ensure high-quality data for training TTS models. For details on data processing pipeline and statistics, please refer to the paper in the Citation secition.

Acknowledgement

The raw audio and text files have been collected from the archive of Nasl-e-Mana magazine devoted to the blind. We thank the Nasl-e-Mana magazine for their invaluable work and for being so generous with the published dataset license. We also extend our gratitude to the Iran Blind Non-governmental Organization for their support and guidance regarding the need for open access initiatives in this domain.

Data Columns

Each Parquet file contains the following columns:

  • file name (string): The unique identifier of the audio file.
  • transcript (string): The ground-truth transcript corresponding to the audio.
  • duration (float64): Duration of the audio file in seconds.
  • match quality (string): Either "HIGH" for CER < 0.05 or "MIDDLE" for 0.05 < CER < 0.2 between actual and hypothesis transcript.
  • hypothesis (string): The best transcript generated by ASR as hypothesis to find the matching ground-truth transcript.
  • CER (float64): The Character Error Rate (CER) of the ground-truth and hypothesis transcripts.
  • search type (int64): Either 1 indicating the GT transcripts is result of Interval Search or 2 if a result of Gapped Search (refer to paper for more details).
  • ASRs (string): The Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems used in order to find a satisfying matching transcript.
  • audio (sequence): The actual audio data.
  • samplerate (float64): The sample rate of the audio.
