extra_gated_prompt: "The collected information will help acquire a better knowledge of pyannote.audio userbase and help its maintainers apply for grants to improve it further. If you are an academic researcher, please cite the relevant papers in your own publications using the model. If you work for a company, please consider contributing back to pyannote.audio development (e.g. through unrestricted gifts). We also provide scientific consulting services around speaker diarization and machine listening."

# 🎹 Speaker segmentation

Relies on pyannote.audio 2.1: see [installation instructions](https://github.com/pyannote/pyannote-audio#installation).

```python
# 1. visit hf.co/pyannote/segmentation and accept user conditions
# 2. visit hf.co/settings/tokens to create an access token
# 3. instantiate pretrained speaker segmentation pipeline
from pyannote.audio import Pipeline
pipeline = Pipeline.from_pretrained("pyannote/speaker-segmentation")
output = pipeline("audio.wav")

for turn, _, speaker in output.itertracks(yield_label=True):
    # speaker speaks between turn.start and turn.end
    ...
```

⚠️ This pipeline does not address [speaker diarization](https://huggingface.co./pyannote/speaker-diarization).
