Variables definition
Open the shell script .../data_processing/process_data.sh and modify the following fields:
### Festcat variables ###
export PATH_TO_FESTCAT_SHELL='.../data_processing/festcat_processing_test.sh' # Absolute path to festcat_processing_test.sh script
export PATH_TO_FESTCAT_PY='.../data_processing/extract_festcat.py' # Absolute path to extract_festcat.py script
export PATH_TO_FESTCAT_DATA='.../festcat/' # Path to Festcat dataset
export FESTCAT_FINAL_PATH='.../festcat_processed' # Path where preprocessed Festcat will be stored
### Google_tts variables ###
export PATH_TO_GOOGLE_TTS_SHELL='.../data_processing/google_tts_processing_test.sh' # Absolute path to google_tts_processing_test.sh script
export PATH_TO_GOOGLE_TTS_PY='.../data_processing/extract_google_tts.py' # Absolute path to extract_google_tts.py script
export PATH_TO_GOOGLE_TTS_DATA='.../google_tts' # Path to Google TTS dataset
export GOOGLE_TTS_FINAL_PATH='.../google_tts_processed' # Path where preprocessed Google TTS will be stored
### General variables ###
export VCTK_FORMATER_PATH='.../data_processing/ca_multi2vckt.py' # Absolute path to ca_multi2vckt.py script
export FINAL_PATH='.../multispeaker_ca_test/' # Path where preprocessed and vctk formatted datasets will be stored.
Run preprocessing
Once the variables are correctly defined, execute the following command in the terminal:
sh <...>/data_processing/process_data.sh
The processed data in vctk format will be in the directory defined in export FINAL_PATH='.../multispeaker_ca_test/'.
