{"url":"/dataset/sonics","name":"SONICS","full_name":"Synthetic Or Not - Identifying Counterfeit Songs","description_markdown":"**SONICS** is a large-scale dataset comprising **97,164 songs** — **48,090 real songs** from *YouTube* and **49,074 fake songs** from *Suno & Udio* — designed for **synthetic song detection (SSD)**, also known as **fake song detection (FSD)**. It addresses several limitations of existing datasets, such as the lack of end-to-end fake songs, limited diversity in music-lyrics, and insufficient long-duration songs. The average length of the songs in SONICS is **176 seconds**, which enables the capture of long-context relationships. Moreover, SONICS provides open access to generated fake songs and is divided into **66,709 songs** for training, **26,015 songs** for testing, and **4,440 songs** for validation. Additionally, the inclusion of song lyrics in SONICS dataset paves the way for future research in this field.","description_withheld":null,"homepage":"https://github.com/awsaf49/sonics","introduced_date":"2024-08-26","introduced_date_note":null,"introduced_by":{"paper":"/paper/sonics-synthetic-or-not-identifying","title":"SONICS: Synthetic Or Not -- Identifying Counterfeit Songs","first_author":"Md Awsafur Rahman","url":null},"license":{"name":"CC BY-NC 4.0","url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/deed.en"},"modalities":[{"name":"Audio","url":"/datasets/modality/audio"}],"tasks":[{"name":"DeepFake Detection","url":"/task/deepfake-detection","datasets_with_task":"/datasets/task/deepfake-detection"},{"name":"Audio Deepfake Detection","url":"/task/audio-deepfake-detection","datasets_with_task":"/datasets/task/audio-deepfake-detection"},{"name":"Synthetic Speech Detection","url":"/task/synthetic-speech-detection","datasets_with_task":"/datasets/task/synthetic-speech-detection"},{"name":"Fake Song Detection","url":"/task/fake-song-detection","datasets_with_task":"/datasets/task/fake-song-detection"},{"name":"Synthetic Song Detection","url":"/task/synthetic-song-detection","datasets_with_task":"/datasets/task/synthetic-song-detection"}],"languages":[{"name":"English","url":"/datasets/language/english"}],"variants":["SONICS"],"data_loaders":[],"num_papers_in_archive":3,"source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28"},"benchmarks":[],"papers_with_a_benchmark_row":[],"syntology_totals":{"read_at":"2026-09-24T18:15:14+00:00","papers_with_samples":0,"samples_harvested":0,"samples_ran":0,"samples_unverified":0,"pointer_only_for_licence":0,"papers_with_no_sample_that_ran":0,"note":"the per-paper counts above, summed; not a rate"},"papers_note":"The archive never published its papers-using-dataset list; these are papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks."}
