NISQA is a deep learning model/framework for speech quality prediction. The NISQA model weights can be used to predict the quality of a speech sample that has been sent through a communication system (e.g telephone or video call). Besides overall speech quality, NISQA also provides predictions for the quality dimensions Noisiness, Coloration, Discontinuity, and Loudness to give more insight into the cause of the quality degradation.
