SpokenSTS Dataset

Spoken versions of the Semantic Textual Similarity dataset for testing semantic sentence level embeddings. Contains thousands of sentence pairs annotated by humans for semantic similarity. The spoken sentences can be used in sentence embedding models to test whether your model learns to capture sentence semantics.

Disclaimer

This distribution is not official. This subset only contains sentences from 4 human voices. Synthesized voices are excluded.

Dataset structure

  • There are five tasks: STS12 ~ STS16.
  • Each tasks has couple of subtasks. Each subtask as few dozens of unique sentence pairs (numbers in parenthesis).
    • STS12: MSRpar (38), MSRvid (38), SMTeuroparl (23), OnWN (43), SMTnews (20)
    • STS13: FNWN (10), headlines (38), OnWN (30)
    • STS14: deft-forum (23), deft-news (15), headlines (38), images (38), OnWN (32), tweet-news (38)
    • STS15: answers-forums (19), answers-students (38), belief (19), headlines (38), images (38)
    • STS16: answer-answer (13), headlines (13), plagiarism (12), postediting (13), question-question (11)
  • Total 638 unique sentence pairs exist. Note that pair_id is only unique within the subtask.
  • For each sentence pair, there are utterances from 4 speakers (speaker_id 1 ~ 4), total 638x4=2552 rows in the dataset.
  • Sentence pair similarity ranges from minimum 0.0 to maximum 5.0.
  • Refer Table 1 of SpokenSTS paper for more details on tasks & subtasks.
  • Audio is resampled into 16kHz.
