# Aligned English MLS
|
| 23 |
+
We use the Montreal Forced Aligner to align English audio files to transcripts. The dataset contains a total of 44.5K hours of English audio speech.
|
| 24 |
+
|
| 25 |
+
We only provide the aligned TextGrid files. To download the audio files, you can use the Parler MLS English dataset available at [parler-tts/mls_eng](https://huggingface.co/datasets/parler-tts/mls_eng).
|
| 26 |
+
|
| 27 |
+
This dataset can be used to train TTS models by leveraging the ground truth phoneme durations to align phoneme features with acoustic features.
|
| 28 |
+
|
| 29 |
+
### Download the Dataset
|
| 30 |
+
To download the dataset, use the following command:
|
| 31 |
+
|
| 32 |
+
```
|
| 33 |
+
huggingface-cli download ntt123/aligned_mls_eng --repo-type dataset
|
| 34 |
+
```
|
| 35 |
+
|
| 36 |
+
### Read TextGrid Files
|
| 37 |
+
To read the TextGrid files, you can use the `textgrid` library. First, install the library:
|
| 38 |
+
|
| 39 |
+
```
|
| 40 |
+
pip install textgrid
|
| 41 |
+
```
|
| 42 |
+
|
| 43 |
+
Then, load and process a TextGrid file with the following example code:
|
| 44 |
+
|
| 45 |
+
```python
|
| 46 |
+
import textgrid
|
| 47 |
+
|
| 48 |
+
# Load the TextGrid file
|
| 49 |
+
tg = textgrid.TextGrid.fromFile('test.TextGrid')
|
| 50 |
+
```
