DuplexDrama: A Synthesized Dialogue Dataset with Scenarios, Full-Duplex Behaviors, Expressive Speech, and Sound Events

DuplexDrama is a newly announced synthesized spoken dialogue dataset that uniquely combines complete persona and scenario settings, three full‑duplex behaviors (interruption, backchannel, incomplete), expressive speech with persona‑aligned emotion labels, and script‑aware sound events. The dataset was created through a four‑stage pipeline and validated for quality on both scripts and audio, yielding over 2,000 hours of audio featuring 64 voices across 13 personas and 5 age groups, with 3.8% of turns containing full‑duplex behaviors. A curated bilingual subset of 6,400 dialogues (800 hours total) will be released to support research in full‑duplex spoken dialogue models, and evaluation prompts will accompany the dataset.
