🎹 Voice activity detection

Relies on pyannote.audio 2.1: see installation instructions.

# 1. visit hf.co/pyannote/segmentation and accept user conditions
# 2. visit hf.co/settings/tokens to create an access token
# 3. instantiate pretrained voice activity detection pipeline

from pyannote.audio import Pipeline
pipeline = Pipeline.from_pretrained("pyannote/voice-activity-detection",
                                    use_auth_token="ACCESS_TOKEN_GOES_HERE")
output = pipeline("audio.wav")

for speech in output.get_timeline().support():
    # active speech between speech.start and speech.end
    ...
