LibriSpeech LibriSpeech is a corpus of approximately 1000 hours of read English speech with sampling rate of 16 kHz. The data is derived from read audiobooks from the LibriVox project, and has been carefully segmented and aligned.[1] Each book’s text is normalized by converting it into upper-case, re- moving the punctuation, and expanding common abbreviations and non-standard words.[2] CC BY 4.0
  • The audio recordings and transcriptions are all English
  • The dataset is divided into different portions such as "train", "dev", and "test" to facilitate both training and evaluation
  • The dataset is segmented into various sizes, denoted as "100" for 100 hours of audio, "360", and "500".
  • The dataset is categorized into "clean" and "other" sets. The "clean" sets have high-quality recordings, while the "other" sets have recordings that might have more background noise or less clear pronunciations.

  1. Low Disfluencies: The speech data in the dataset have a low level of disfluencies.
  2. Quality Evaluation: The quality of both audio and sentence alignments in the dataset has been assessed through manual evaluation.
  3. Sentence Alignment Quality: The quality of sentence alignments is stated to be comparable to widely-used parallel translation datasets.

Notes on LibriSpeech

  • We only used the development set to test our ASR code in Python;
  • The names of the speakers who recorded all the audiobooks contained in this corpus are also available in a separate text file;
  • Exhaustive information about this dataset can be found in this article;
  • This dataset was included in the Kaldi speech recognition toolkit.
  • Another version of research on LibriSpeech by Yuxing Ouyang, Xiaoling Lin, Xueying Liu, Jingxuan Yue, M.Tepei can be found in Librispeech.
