# GSLM Metrics

## ASR Metrics
The suite of metrics here uses an ASR model to transcribe the synthesized speech into text, and then uses text-based metrics. We also use word error rate from ASR transcription itself as one of the metrics. [More details](asr_metrics)

## ABX Metrics
We use [ABX](https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/ABX-Discriminability-Measures-and-Applications-Schatz/13d3537228f728c1063cc83743cb118bba3367a0) to evaluate how well-separated phonetic categories are with quantized representations. [More details](abx_metrics)

## sWUGGY and sBLIMP
We refer to [ZeroSpeech challenge](https://www.zerospeech.com/2021/track_s.html#scoring-based-metrics) for details on the sWUGGY and sBLIMP metrics.
