ClonEval: An Open Voice Cloning Benchmark
This provides a standardized tool for researchers and practitioners in voice cloning to compare models, though it is incremental as it focuses on benchmarking rather than new methods.
The authors introduced ClonEval, a new benchmark for evaluating voice cloning text-to-speech models, including an evaluation protocol, open-source library, and leaderboard to assess performance.
We present a novel benchmark for voice cloning text-to-speech models. The benchmark consists of an evaluation protocol, an open-source library for assessing the performance of voice cloning models, and an accompanying leaderboard. The paper discusses design considerations and presents a detailed description of the evaluation procedure. The usage of the software library is explained, along with the organization of results on the leaderboard.
