What is in the test set

Every accuracy figure on this site was measured on the clips described below. Publishing the composition is what makes the figures arguable — and a figure nobody can argue with is not a measurement.

Synthetic clips

Source systemClipsVoicesGenerated
[VERIFY: generator][VERIFY][VERIFY][VERIFY: date]
[VERIFY: one row per generator in /voices/. Generation date matters — a set built a year ago measures a model nobody uses now.]

Human clips

The set behind the false positive rate. It is deliberately awkward: if it were all clean studio speech the false positive rate would look excellent and mean nothing.

SourceClipsSpeakersConsent basis
[VERIFY: e.g. public-domain speech corpora, name each][VERIFY][VERIFY][VERIFY]
[VERIFY: recordings collected with consent][VERIFY][VERIFY][VERIFY]
[VERIFY: state the consent basis for every human recording. A detector that trained on people's voices without permission cannot credibly lecture anyone about voice cloning.]

Languages

[VERIFY: list languages with clip counts. Then state plainly what performance outside them is — measured and lower, or unmeasured. Unmeasured is an acceptable answer; silence is not.]

What we will share

[VERIFY: whether the human set, the synthetic set, or the generation scripts can be shared with researchers, and on what terms. If licensing prevents sharing a corpus, name the corpus so someone else can obtain it themselves.]
