• Title: DailyTalk: Spoken Dialogue Dataset for Conversational Text-to-Speech
• Authors: Keon Lee, Kyumin Park, Daeyoung Kim
• Abstract summary: We introduce DailyTalk, a high-quality conversational speech dataset designed for Text-to-Speech. We sampled, modified, and recorded 2,541 dialogues from the open-domain dialogue dataset DailyDialog. We extend prior work as our baseline, where a non-autoregressive TTS is conditioned on historical information in a dialog.

• Abstract: The majority of current TTS datasets, which are collections of individual utterances, contain few conversational aspects in terms of both style and metadata. In this paper, we introduce DailyTalk, a high-quality conversational speech dataset designed for Text-to-Speech. We sampled, modified, and recorded 2,541 dialogues from the open-domain dialogue dataset DailyDialog which are adequately long to represent context of each dialogue. During the data construction step, we maintained attributes distribution originally annotated in DailyDialog to support diverse dialogue in DailyTalk. On top of our dataset, we extend prior work as our baseline, where a non-autoregressive TTS is conditioned on historical information in a dialog. We gather metadata so that a TTS model can learn historical dialog information, the key to generating context-aware speech. From the baseline experiment results, we show that DailyTalk can be used to train neural text-to-speech models, and our baseline can represent contextual information. The DailyTalk dataset and baseline code are freely available for academic use with CC-BY-SA 4.0 license.

  Conversational Text-to-Speech (TTS) aims to synthesis an utterance with the right linguistic and affective prosody in a conversational context. We propose a novel expressive conversational TTS model, as termed FCTalker, that learn the fine and coarse grained context dependency at the same time during speech generation.

The scale of Pchatbot is significantly larger than existing Chinese datasets, which might benefit the data-driven models.
