Objective evaluation of audio processed with Time-Scale Modification (TSM) remains an open problem. Recently, a dataset of time-scaled audio with subjective quality labels was published and used to create an initial objective measure of…
Objective evaluation of audio processed with Time-Scale Modification (TSM) is seeing a resurgence of interest. Recently, a labelled time-scaled audio dataset was used to train an objective measure for TSM evaluation. This DE measure was an…
Human subjective evaluation is the gold standard to evaluate speech quality optimized for human perception. Perceptual objective metrics serve as a proxy for subjective scores. The conventional and widely used metrics require a reference…
Over the past few decades, computational methods have been developed to estimate perceptual audio quality. These methods, also referred to as objective quality measures, are usually developed and intended for a specific application domain.…
Audio editing aims to manipulate audio content based on textual descriptions, supporting tasks such as adding, removing, or replacing audio events. Despite recent progress, the lack of high-quality benchmark datasets and comprehensive…
Objective audio quality measurement systems often use perceptual models to predict the subjective quality scores of processed signals, as reported in listening tests. Most systems map different metrics of perceived degradation into a single…
The quality of human voice plays an important role across various fields like music, speech therapy, and communication, yet it lacks a universally accepted, objective definition. Instead, voice quality is referred to using subjective…
Over the years, many subjective and objective quality assessment datasets have been created and made available to the research community. However, there is no standard process for documenting the various aspects of the dataset, such as…
Objective speech-quality metrics are widely used to assess codec performance. However, for neural codecs, it is often unclear which metrics provide reliable quality estimates. To address this, we evaluated 45 objective metrics by…

We propose a novel objective evaluation metric for synthesized audio in text-to-audio (TTA), aiming to improve the performance of TTA models. In TTA, subjective evaluation of the synthesized sound is an important, but its implementation…
The real-world capabilities of objective speech quality measures are limited since current measures (1) are developed from simulated data that does not adequately model real environments; or they (2) predict objective scores that are not…
Recent advances in text-to-music generation (TTM) have yielded high-quality results, but often at the cost of extensive compute and the use of large proprietary internal data. To improve the affordability and openness of TTM training, an…
The Open Dataset of Audio Quality (ODAQ) was recently introduced to address the scarcity of openly available audio datasets with corresponding subjective quality scores. The dataset, released under permissive licenses, comprises audio…
