New ANCHOR model refines speech quality assessment for streaming audio

Researchers have developed ANCHOR, a novel autoregressive model designed for incremental speech quality assessment. Unlike previous methods that require complete utterances, ANCHOR can estimate quality from partial audio streams, making it suitable for real-time applications. The model employs a dual-resolution token system and a hierarchical structure to refine quality predictions from coarse to fine, demonstrating a significant reduction in error on short audio prefixes.

    ANCHOR: Autoregressive Non-intrusive Chunk-Ordered Refinement for Joint Multi-Resolution Speech Quality Modeling

    arXiv:2606.10233v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While speech quality is typically assessed on complete utterances, streaming and generative systems require incremental estimation from partial audio. Existing predictors assume full context, degrading on prefix-constrained inputs…
