Abstract
Impact of Languages and Accent on Perceived Speech Quality Predicted by Perceptual Evaluation of Speech Quality (PESQ) and Perceptual Objective Listening Quality Assessment (POLQA): Case of Moore, Dioula, French and English
Highlights
This paper deals with the evaluation of Perceptual Evaluation of Speech Quality (PESQ) and Perceptual Objective Listening Quality Assessment (POLQA) on languages that were not been considered when setting up these methods, with emphasis on Moore and Dioula, two local languages of Burkina Faso
Called objective models, aim to automatically predict the perceived speech quality as it would be obtained in a formal subjective test
This paper evaluates the impact of language and accent on the speech quality predicted by the PESQ and POLQA standards
Summary
Subjective methods, called subjective testing, consist of a set of tests in which participants judge the speech quality as they perceive it on a defined quality scale [1] [2]. The scores from this test are used to calculate an average score called Mean Opinion Score (MOS). This approach is the most suitable for assessing speech quality. Called objective models, aim to automatically predict the perceived speech quality as it would be obtained in a formal subjective test. Regarding PESQ, it only operates on narrow and wide bands
