Details on TTS evaluation?

[Btlmd]

Hello! Thanks for your wonderful work. Trying to reproduce your results on the TTS task, I'm wondering if you could provide more details about the evaluation of the TTS task, especially:

• How many / Which samples are used in VCTK dataset
• Which ASR model is used to convert the generated speech into text
• How the WER is calculated; What kind of text normalization is applied before the calculation

Thanks!

Hi, I have a few questions about zero-shot TTS evaluation using the VCTK dataset.

1. Evaluation Methodology:

We randomly select a 3-second clip from each speaker as the vocal prompt along with a separate text as input.

In the paper, particularly in Appendix C, the evaluation process seems a bit open to interpretation. Could you please provide a detailed description of how the evaluation was conducted?
Additionally, did you use all audio files from the VCTK dataset for the evaluation and cut off any entries longer than 3 seconds?

2. Dataset Usage:
I am curious about the specific version of the VCTK dataset used in your study. Did you only utilize audio files from the "mic2" recordings in the VCTK 0.92 version?
