论文摘要
尽管已经提出了几种环境声音综合方法，但尚未就应如何评估合成的环境声音进行讨论。仅在常规评估中进行了主观评估或客观评估，尚不清楚应进行哪种类型的评估。在本文中，我们研究了如何评估合成的环境声音。我们还提出了一种主观评估方法，以评估合成的声音是否适当地代表了环境声音合成系统的信息输入。在我们的实验中，我们比较了提出的和常规的评估方法，并表明主观评估的结果往往与客观评估的结果不同。从这些结果中，我们得出的结论是，不仅有必要进行客观评估，还要进行主观评估。
Although several methods of environmental sound synthesis have been proposed, there has been no discussion on how synthesized environmental sounds should be evaluated. Only either subjective or objective evaluations have been conducted in conventional evaluations, and it is not clear what type of evaluation should be carried out. In this paper, we investigate how to evaluate synthesized environmental sounds. We also propose a subjective evaluation methodology to evaluate whether the synthesized sound appropriately represents the information input to the environmental sound synthesis system. In our experiments, we compare the proposed and conventional evaluation methods and show that the results of subjective evaluations tended to differ from those of objective evaluations. From these results, we conclude that it is necessary to conduct not only objective evaluation but also subjective evaluation.
