What does instance_id mean?

Thank you for sharing your code.

What does instance_id mean? in csv file? (ex: vL7N_xRJKJU_1440_1500:118:0:0)
I need this information to train my own data.

Thanks and looking forward for your reply.

Hi

entity_id and instance_id are related. While entity_id identifies a single tracklet in the dataset, instance_id creates a division on a tracklet everytime the groundtruth changes. That is, you split the tracklet into "sub-tracklets'' and each subtracklet is guaranteed to have the same speech activity (silent or speaking).

Also notice the entity_id and instance_id are the same, but the later has an extra ":X".
