Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for using a model of human speech quality perception to provide an objective measure for predicting subjective quality assessments. A Virtual Speech Quality Objective Listener (ViSQOL) model is a signal-based full-reference metric that uses a spectro-temporal measure of similarity between a reference signal and test speech signal. Specifically, the model provides for the ability to detect and predict the level of clock drift, and determine whether such clock drift will impact a listener's quality of experience.
