In plain words: A free Python toolkit gathers audio quality scores in one place so computer-generated sound can be judged consistently. Unlike today's scattered tools, it includes the only Python version of PEAQ, an algorithm that rates audio the way a human listener would.
Abstract · AQUATK: An Audio Quality Assessment Toolkit
Recent advancements in Neural Audio Synthesis (NAS) have outpaced the development of standardized evaluation methodologies and tools. To bridge this gap, we introduce AquaTk, an open-source Python library specifically designed to simplify and standardize the evaluation of NAS systems. AquaTk offers a range of audio quality metrics, including a unique Python implementation of the basic PEAQ algorithm, and operates in multiple modes to accommodate various user needs.
