# Librispeech Slices

## Description
[Librispeech](https://huggingface.co/datasets/openslr/librispeech_asr) is a large corpus of read English utterances derived from the LibriVox public domain audiobook project. 
It was assembled to assist in Automatic Speech Recognition tasks, and contains approximately 1000 Hours of utterances recorded at 16kHz. 

A subset of the original Librispeech dataset was created to support the development of automatic audio scene creation in the Treble SDK environment. 
To better imitate the natural flow of conversation, the original dataset was filtered for audio examples lasting approximately 1-10 seconds.
This filtered dataset is provided as a demonstration and example to inspire alternative preparations of datasets for similar purposes.
