Evaluation of audio quality assessment models using FAD, KAD, and OTAD metrics on the DCASE Task 7 System-level n=9 2023 dataset.

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.

| Scope | Recorded value |
| --- | --- |
| Task | Audio quality assessment |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | DCASE Task 7 System-level n=9 2023 |
| Metric | FAD |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Lower is better |
| Results loaded | 14 of 14 |
| Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark |

Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol.

## Metrics

- [FAD](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/audio-quality-assessment-on-dcase-task-7-system-level-n-9-2023.md?metric=FAD>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [KAD](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/audio-quality-assessment-on-dcase-task-7-system-level-n-9-2023.md?metric=KAD>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [OTAD (Raw)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/audio-quality-assessment-on-dcase-task-7-system-level-n-9-2023.md?metric=OTAD%20(Raw)>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [OTAD (Agnostic)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/audio-quality-assessment-on-dcase-task-7-system-level-n-9-2023.md?metric=OTAD%20(Agnostic)>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [OTAD (Natural)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/audio-quality-assessment-on-dcase-task-7-system-level-n-9-2023.md?metric=OTAD%20(Natural)>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.
