# Annotated-VocalSet: A Singing Voice Dataset
## 5 Conclusions  
This paper introduced an extended set of annotations for the solo singing files in the VocalSet dataset [6]. The provided annotations include F0, onset, offset, transition, note F0, note duration, Midi pitch, lyric. In addition, four approaches for considering the onset and offset points in a pitch contour were compared, showing that the selected points for onset and offset cannot significantly affect the note's estimated F0. Moreover, calculating a note's F0 by average or median methods does not considerably affect the note's estimated F0. The annotated dataset is available online at [[https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7061507](https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7061507)]([https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7061507](https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7061507)), accessed on 3 August 2022.
