Evaluation of Zero-shot Voice Cloning performance on the challenging Chinese subset ('zh-hard') test split of the Seed-TTS-Eval dataset, measured using Word Error Rate (WER) and Similarity (SIM).

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 | Zero-shot Voice Cloning |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | Seed-TTS-Eval zh-hard (test) |
| Metric | WER |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Lower is better |
| Results loaded | 12 of 12 |
| 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

- [WER](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/zero-shot-voice-cloning-on-seed-tts-eval-zh-hard-test.md?metric=WER>): Lower is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Similarity Score](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/zero-shot-voice-cloning-on-seed-tts-eval-zh-hard-test.md?metric=Similarity%20Score>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
