Researchers have developed a new method to evaluate speech articulation synthesis by using phoneme recognition as a proxy for quality. This approach hypothesizes that articulatory features better capture phonetic nuances than traditional metrics. A neural network trained on acoustic and articulatory features from an RT-MRI dataset demonstrated that the proposed feature set is phonetically rich and aids in exploring new dimensions of speech articulation synthesis.
