+# TIC-TALK — Timing In stand-up Comedy: Text, Audio, Laughter, Kinesics
+
+Time-aligned text, audio, and vision features from 90 stand-up specials
+(2015–2024). Show identities are anonymized (`SHOW_XXXX`); no source audio,
+video, or transcripts are distributed.
+
+Dataset contains:
+
+| | |
+|---|---|
+| Shows | 90 |
+| Total runtime | ≈ 94 h (mean 63 min / show) |
+| Rows (60 s blocks) | 5 416 |
+| Topics (BERTopic) | 24 |
+| Video frames (1 fps) | 322 973 (22 % full-body) |
+| Laughter coverage (mean) | 17.8 % of block duration, ≈ 1.2 events / 10 s |
+| Embedding dim | 384 |
+| File | single Parquet, 44 MB (zstd) |
+
+## Loading
+
+Single split named `train`
+
+```python
+from datasets import load_dataset
+ds = load_dataset("ENC-PSL/TIC-TALK", split="train")
+```
+
+## Schema (1 row = 1 block)
+
+| field | type | description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `show_id` | string | `SHOW_0001`…`SHOW_0090` |
+| `block_id` | int32 | block index within the show |
+| `start`, `end` | float32 | block window, seconds from show start |
+| `topic_id` | int32 | BERTopic id (24 topics, `-1` = outlier) |
+| `embedding` | float32[384] | sentence-BERT embedding of block text |
+| `laugh_events` | list&lt;struct&gt; | `start`, `end`, `type`, `confidence` |
+| `pose_keypoints` | list&lt;struct&gt; | `time`, `has_detection`, `bbox_*`, `keypoints[17][2]` (COCO-17 order, `[x,y]` in pixels) |
+| `shot_events` | list&lt;struct&gt; | `time`, `label`, `class_id`, `score` |
+| `show_duration_sec`, `show_n_blocks` | float32 / int32 | show-level |
+| `show_has_laugh` / `_pose` / `_shots` | bool | modality flags |
+| `topic_show_id` | string | per-show topic model id |
+
+Shot labels: `full_shot`, `medium_close-up`, `medium_long_shot`,
+`medium_shot`, `other_angles`, `other` (6 classes, average F1 = 0.91).
+
+All timestamps are in seconds on the same absolute axis (from show start).
+Block assignment is by event start: `pose_keypoints[i].time`,
+`shot_events[i].time`, `laugh_events[i].start` ∈ `[start, end)`; a
+`laugh_events[i].end` may extend ≤ 0.8 s past `end` (Whisper-AT stride).
+
+## Example
+
+```python
+from datasets import load_dataset
+ds = load_dataset("ENC-PSL/TIC-TALK", split="train")
+
+def pose_near(row, t, window=1.0):
+    return [p for p in row["pose_keypoints"]
+            if p["has_detection"] and abs(p["time"] - t) <= window]
+
+for row in ds:
+    for ev in row["laugh_events"]:
+        poses_at_onset = pose_near(row, ev["start"])
+        # ... features at laughter onset
+```
+
+## Provenance
+
+Derived features only (no source media is redistributed).
+
+- **Text / topics**: subtitle-derived 60 s blocks, sentence-BERT
+  `sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2` (384-dim), BERTopic with UMAP
+  (`n_neighbors=15`, `n_components=5`, `min_dist=0.1`) + HDBSCAN
+  (`min_cluster_size=15`, `min_samples=5`), 24 topics.
+- **Laughter**: Whisper-AT (AudioSet audio tagging), 0.8 s stride,
+  high-recall configuration; contiguous positive windows merged into events.
+- **Pose**: YOLOv8s-pose (pretrained), 17-keypoint output in canonical COCO
+  order, 1 fps, restricted to full-body / frontal frames.
+- **Shot**: YOLOv8-cls fine-tuned on 594 manually annotated frames
+  (val on 128 held-out frames, average F1 = 0.91), 1 fps.
