Distil Whisper: People's Speech Clean

This is a variant of the People's Speech Clean dataset, augmented to return the pseudo-labelled Whisper Transcriptions alongside the original dataset elements. The pseudo-labelled transcriptions were generated by labelling the input audio data with the Whisper large-v2 model with greedy sampling. For information on how the original dataset was curated, refer to the original dataset card.

Standalone Usage

First, install the latest version of the 🤗 Datasets package:

pip install --upgrade pip
pip install --upgrade datasets[audio]

The dataset can be downloaded and pre-processed on disk using the load_dataset function:

from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("distil-whisper/peoples_speech-clean", "clean")
# take the first sample of the validation set
sample = dataset["validation"][0]

It can also be streamed directly from the Hub using Datasets' streaming mode. Loading a dataset in streaming mode loads individual samples of the dataset at a time, rather than downloading the entire dataset to disk:

from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("distil-whisper/peoples_speech-clean", "clean", streaming=True)
# take the first sample of the validation set
sample = next(iter(dataset["validation"]))
