Evidence claims:
- [upstream_claim] README: open-source toolkit for speaker diarization built on PyTorch with pretrained models and pipelines on the Hugging Face hub, multi-GPU training with pytorch-lightning, and built-in support for pyannoteAI premium diarization. · locator: README, intro · source: https://github.com/pyannote/pyannote-audio
- [sourced_fact] README 'community-1 open-source speaker diarization' section: requires accepting the user conditions of pyannote/speaker-diarization-community-1 on Hugging Face and creating an access token. · locator: README, community-1 section · source: https://github.com/pyannote/pyannote-audio
- [sourced_fact] GitHub metadata: MIT, not archived, last push 2026-10-16. · locator: repository metadata · source: https://github.com/pyannote/pyannote-audio
- [upstream_claim] Research review verdict at export: reviewed (as of 2026-10-17). Recorded by the research pipeline, not a hub review outcome; evidence.review stays unreviewed until an independent reviewer records one.
