What it does

Interspeech Reproducibility is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when hardening the reproducibility of an INTERSPEECH paper — pinning corpus versions and official splits, publishing text-normalization and scoring rules that WER/EER silently depend on, documenting MOS listening-test protocols, reporting seeds and variance within 4 pages, and making toolkit recipes rerunnable.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Research & Science, covering Reproducible research and Database schema design. The repository describes itself as: Journal-specific Claude Code/Codex skill packs covering mainstream journals — AER, QJE, Nature, Cell, 管理世界, 经济研究 & 200+ more — your fast track to getting published. | 覆盖主流期刊的… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Hardening the reproducibility of an INTERSPEECH paper — pinning corpus versions and official splits
  • Publishing text-normalization and scoring rules that WER/EER silently depend on
  • Documenting MOS listening-test protocols
  • Reporting seeds and variance within 4 pages

Example prompts

  • “/interspeech-reproducibility”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Interspeech Reproducibility loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 697 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~86
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

INTERSPEECH Reproducibility

Speech results decay through the measurement, not just the model. Two labs with identical checkpoints can report WERs a point apart because their text normalization differs, and two identical TTS systems can score half a MOS point apart under different listening panels. Interspeech reviewers know this, and the 4-page format means reproducibility is asserted through precise, compressed disclosure — there is no appendix to hide vagueness in.

The five decay channels

ChannelHow results driftPin it by
Corpus version & splits"test" ≠ official test; filtered utterancesName corpus version + official partition; list any filtering rule
Text normalizationcasing, punctuation, numerals change WERPublish the norm script; name the scorer (e.g., sclite/jiwer + config)
Trial lists / protocolsEER/minDCF move with the trial setCite the exact trial list file and calibration set
Subjective testingMOS panels differ in raters, scale, stimuliReport rater count, platform, instructions, #stimuli, CI
Training stochasticityseed, data order, nondeterministic kernelsSeeds logged; ≥3 runs where feasible; mean ± sd

Corpus discipline

  • Name the release, not the family: "LibriSpeech test-other", "VoxCeleb1-O cleaned trial list", "CHiME-6 eval per the challenge rules" — each token is checkable.
  • If you re-partition, justify it and publish the split manifests; private splits are the single most common irreproducibility at this venue.
  • State licenses (see interspeech-artifact-evaluation); a reader must know whether they can obtain your training data.
  • For multilingual claims, list the languages and hours per language — "50+ languages" without a table row per language is not reproducible.

Objective metrics: publish the ruler

WER is a Levenshtein distance over a normalization you chose. Reviewers who have been burned will ask:

  • Which scoring tool and version, with which options?
  • What text normalization (case, punctuation, number expansion, compound rules)?
  • Insertion-penalty / LM-weight tuning: on which dev set?
  • For EER/minDCF: which trial list, which prior/costs in the DCF?
  • For enhancement: PESQ-WB or NB? STOI or ESTOI? Which reference alignment?

One sentence in the paper plus scripts in the repo answers all of it.

Subjective metrics: the protocol is the result

A MOS number without its protocol is decoration. The reportable minimum, fitted to about three lines of a 4-page paper:

text
Naturalness MOS: 5-point ACR; N=30 crowd raters (platform X), native speakers,
screened by anchor trials; 20 utterances/system, 8 systems, randomized;
95% CI via rater bootstrap. CMOS vs. baseline on the same panel.

If a claim rests on ±0.1 MOS, it rests on nothing — pair MOS with CMOS or an objective proxy (e.g., a learned MOS predictor, clearly labeled as a proxy) and say whether the panel can resolve the difference.

Variance and seeds inside 4 pages

  • Prefer one honest line — "mean ± sd over 3 seeds; CI excludes the baseline" — over three extra ablations without variance.
  • Bootstrap CIs at the utterance level for WER; matched-pairs significance (e.g., MAPSSWE-style or paired bootstrap) when claiming a system beats another.
  • If compute allows only one run, say so and temper the claim's verbs accordingly.

Recipe rerunnability

Most Interspeech systems live in community toolkits (ESPnet, SpeechBrain, Kaldi, NeMo, k2, fairseq lineage). Reproducibility there means:

  • Pin the toolkit commit and the recipe directory, not just the toolkit name.
  • Diff-against-default: state which hyperparameters differ from the stock recipe — that diff is your method's footprint.
  • Log the full config used for each table row; map rows to config files in the repo.
  • Record hardware and wall-clock: "8×A100, 36h" tells readers whether they can replicate at all.

Review-time vs camera-ready disclosure

During double-blind review the repo must be anonymized or described-but-withheld; at camera-ready the links flip public. Write the reproducibility sentences so that only the URL changes, not the promises.

The disclosure block, worth three lines of the paper

A compact pattern that closes most reviewer doubts at once — adapt per task:

text
Setup: ESPnet2 (commit abc123), LibriSpeech 960h official splits;
Whisper-normalizer text rules; WER via jiwer 3.x, config in repo.
Training: 3 seeds (mean±sd reported), 8×A100, 30h/run; decoding:
beam 10, no external LM; dev-clean used for all tuning.

Every clause preempts a specific review question; nothing in it costs a figure.

Reviewer questions to preempt

  • "Is the gain inside seed noise?" → variance line present.
  • "Which normalization produced these WERs?" → ruler named and shipped.
  • "Did any tuning touch the test set?" → dev-only sentence present.
  • "Can I obtain the training data?" → corpus + license named.
  • "Would the MOS panel resolve this difference?" → CI + panel size reported.

If the paper answers all five before they are asked, the reproducibility paragraph has done its rhetorical job as well as its scientific one.

Output format

text
[Decay-channel audit] corpus / normalization / trials / subjective / seeds — pinned?
[Ruler published?] scoring tools + norm rules in repo: yes / partial / no
[Subjective protocol] complete per the reportable minimum? gaps
[Variance] runs, CI method, significance test used
[Recipe] toolkit+commit, config-per-row mapping, hardware line
[Weakest link] <the one channel most likely to break replication>
