multi-level alignment with "task_adjust_boundary_nonspeech_min" #237

Open bwang482 opened 5 years ago

bwang482 commented 5 years ago

I want to alignment my audio recording files with corresponding transcripts. There are a lot of pauses and silence in my audios. I want multi-level alignment (mainly word-level and segment/paragraph-level) as well as alignment for the pauses and silence. It is important for me to know how long or how short the inter-segment pauses are. However when I use the command below, it detects no pauses/silence for between segments. While if I use is_text_type=plain instead of mplain, I receive the alignment for those inter-segment pauses (as well as the segments).

python -m aeneas.tools.execute_task sample_audio.mp3 sample_audio_transcript.txt "task_language=eng|os_task_file_format=json|is_text_type=mplain|task_adjust_boundary_nonspeech_min=0.0100|task_adjust_boundary_nonspeech_string=(sil)|task_adjust_boundary_algorithm=auto" sample_audio_output.multilevel.json

Why?

To be honest, on top of my mind I cannot answer. It might be a limitation of the current implementation of multilevel. I would need to check the code.

What is the structure of your transcriptions?

Is it
