23
+
24
+ Native-speaker reference artefacts for the **PSP** (Phoneme Substitution Profile)
25
+ benchmark for Indic text-to-speech accent evaluation. Companion to the paper
26
+ [PSP: An Interpretable Per-Dimension Accent Benchmark for Indic Text-to-Speech](https://arxiv.org/abs/TBD)
27
+ (Teja, 2026).
28
+
29
+ This dataset is a **scoring reference**, not a training corpus. It contains
30
+ pre-computed acoustic references extracted from publicly-licensed native-speaker
31
+ speech corpora, used by the [`psp-eval` PyPI package](https://github.com/praxelhq/psp-eval)
32
+ to score TTS outputs on six accent dimensions.
33
+
34
+ ## Contents
35
+
36
+ Per-language files for Telugu (`te`), Hindi (`hi`), and Tamil (`ta`):
37
+
38
+ | File | Shape / size | Description |
39
+ |---|---|---|
40
+ | `{lang}_refs.pkl` | `{phoneme: [ndarray (1024,)]}` | Per-phoneme Wav2Vec2-XLS-R layer-9 centroid bags (500-clip bootstrap) |
41
+ | `{lang}_fad_natives.pkl` | `ndarray (1000, 1024)` | Utterance-level XLS-R embeddings for FAD computation |
42
+ | `{lang}_psd_natives.pkl` | `ndarray (500, 5)` | Prosodic feature vectors (F0 mean/std/range, onset-rate, nPVI) for PSD |
43
+ | `{lang}_sanity.json` | small JSON | Held-out native-audio sanity-check scores (§6 paper Signal 5) |
44
+
45
+ ## Provenance
46
+
47
+ All centroids and reference distributions are derived from:
48
+ - **Telugu**: [IndicTTS](https://www.iitm.ac.in/donlab/tts/) (Telugu subset) — CC-BY-4.0
49
+ - **Hindi**: [Rasa](https://github.com/AI4Bharat/Rasa) (Hindi subset) — CC-BY-4.0
50
+ - **Tamil**: IndicTTS (Tamil subset) — CC-BY-4.0
51
+
52
+ 500 clips per language sampled from the full corpus with seed `1337`. FAD references
53
+ sample 1000 clips from the same pool with the same seed. PSD references sample 500
54
+ clips. Held-out sanity-check clips sample from the same pool with disjoint seed `999`.
55
+
56
+ Each pickle was produced by `evaluation/psp_bootstrap.py` in the
57
+ [praxelhq/psp-eval repository](https://github.com/praxelhq/psp-eval); see that
58
+ script for the exact extraction pipeline and the alignment-model checkpoints used.
59
+
60
+ ## Usage
61
+
62
+ ```python
63
+ from psp_eval import score_directory
64
+
65
+ # Centroids auto-download from this repo on first use.
66
+ scores = score_directory("my_tts_outputs/", language="te")
67
+ ```
68
+
69
+ Or load directly in Python:
70
+
71
+ ```python
72
+ import pickle
73
+ from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
74
+
75
+ path = hf_hub_download("Praxel/psp-native-centroids", "te_refs.pkl", repo_type="dataset")
76
+ with open(path, "rb") as f:
77
+ refs = pickle.load(f)
78
+ # refs: {"ṭ": [np.ndarray (1024,), ...], "ḍ": [...], ...}
79
+ ```
80
+
81
+ ## Known caveats
82
+
83
+ - **Per-phoneme probe noise floor**: native Telugu / Tamil audio registers
84
+ 0.47–0.54 retroflex fidelity when scored against these centroids (not 1.0).
85
+ This reflects speaker variance between centroid and held-out native corpora,
86
+ aligner quality, and the strictness of the 0.5 collapse threshold. Interpret
87
+ per-phoneme scores as **relative rankings across systems**, not absolute
88
+ distances from a theoretical 1.0 ceiling. See paper §6 Signal 5 for details.
89
+ - **FAD / PSD** do not share this noise floor (native audio correctly scores
90
+ 5–50× lower than commercial-TTS outputs).
91
+ - **Unnormalised Fréchet across mixed-scale PSD dimensions**: nPVI has numeric
92
+ range ~$10^2$ while log-$F_0$ is ~$10^0$. A z-scored variant is planned for
93
+ the v2 release.
