Interesting #INTERSPEECH2023 paper (I think ;-)) on using MOS scores vs side-by-side preference tests when comparing TTS systems.

How to choose? Is one more robust/sensitive than the other?

Ever wondered about that?

Here is the paper:

Today, we're releasing our #audio #speech quality assessment model for the audio packet-loss concealment ( #plc ) task, so you, too, can stop using mediocre metrics like PESQ and POLQA! #science

Paper to appear at #INTERSPEECH2023 #interspeech , preprint for now: https://halcy.de/cites/papers/diener2023plcmos.htm , arxiv soon

Baseline system + leaderboards are up for #MerlionChallenge untangling complex code-mixed speech. Which #ML #DeepLearning #SpeechProc system will do the best job on complex language use in the wild? 👀

TWO TEAMS have already beaten the baseline for Language ID:
🎉Lingua_Lumos (Closed)
🎉UNSW_Signal_Processing (Open)

There’s still time to join the challenge and prep your paper for our special session at #Interspeech2023
