created as part of [OVOS TTS plugin benchmarks](https://github.com/TigreGotico/tts-benchmarks)

## Metrics

- **RTF - Real Time Factor** - real time factor, how many seconds it takes to create 1 second of audio - (*lower is
  better*)
- **WER - Word Error Rate** - this is a proxy for understandability, assuming more understandable speech scores better
  in STT, correlates to how many words the TTS pronounces wrong - (*lower is better*)
- **DAMERAU LEVENSHTEIN SIMILARITY** - this is also a proxy for understandability, assuming more understandable speech
  scores better - (*higher is better*)
- **Pitch Variability** - Measures the variation in the pitch of the speech. Higher variability can indicate more
  natural, human-like speech, while low variability may suggest robotic or monotone output. (*Higher is better*)

> **NOTE**: for STT google is used, and in case of failure Whisper large V3 as fallback
