Outline of Research at the Start |
Listening tests to evaluate speech synthesizers are time-consuming, costly, and a significant bottleneck to experimental evaluation, and better evaluation methodologies for synthesized speech are needed. To this end, we plan 1) collection of new datasets for automatic speech synthesis quality estimation; 2) development of quality predictors that consider explainability, context, and generalizability; 3) the continuation of international shared-task challenges on speech quality estimation.
