I spent a large part of this week preparing for my presentation. I sent time practicing what I was going to say and how to best convey our object and technical design. In addition, we as a team did a lot more testing for the final report. We conducted more user studies, to help verify our technical requirements.
By myself, I spent time benchmarking our Speech-To-Text and Text-To-Speech models as well as the roundtrip latency for our entire system. My findings showed that in most cases the roundtrip time from when the user stops speaking their query to when the model starts with its response is under 5s. This fulfills our technical specifications. The only case where this failed was on the first query to the server. This is likely attributed to a need for a buffer to make sure everything has started up properly.
I think we are definitely on track. For this upcoming week, I will mainly spend my time working on the report and poster for the final demo.
