There are some datasets of varying scales for audio classification (AC) applied to different tasks. However, annotated data is limited for most scenarios, such as domestic environments. To address this challenge, we propose an $\textbf{A}$utomatic $\textbf{A}$udio $\textbf{A}$nnotation Pipeline--TriA Pipeline, which can efficiently convert audio from various scenarios into high-quality training data with audio event annotations. A TriA dataset was constructed with the TriA Pipeline, over 2130 hours of audio covering 431 audio classes. Furthermore, we partitioned a prior-knowledge-guided subset (TriA$_{\mathrm{GK}}$) from TriA and conduct comparative experiments on three domestic AC tasks. Comparing the result on manually annotated data only and that on manually annotated data combines TriA$_{\mathrm{GK}}$, TriA$_{\mathrm{GK}}$ could achieve average relative gains of 3.97% in accuracy and 3.35% in Macro-F1, validating the effectiveness of TriA$_{\mathrm{GK}}$ and the TriA Pipeline.

Speaker recognition has advanced rapidly with large-scale training datasets, yet Vietnamese remains under-resourced, with existing corpora limited in scale and acoustic diversity. Most large-scale datasets rely on facial cues to link speech with speaker identities, restricting data collection to recordings where speakers appear on camera. We propose a face-independent dataset construction pipeline and introduce VieSpeaker, a large-scale Vietnamese speaker recognition dataset. Our approach leverages textual metadata and large language model reasoning to infer speaker identities from transcripts and contextual information. VieSpeaker contains approximately 902 hours of speech from 4,715 speakers. Experiments show that models trained on VieSpeaker achieve improved robustness and generalization compared to existing Vietnamese datasets. This work demonstrates the feasibility of face-independent dataset construction and provides a new direction for building large-scale speech resources.
