  text: Recently, substantial progress has been made in the field of reverberant speech
    signal processing, including both single- and multichannel de-reverberation techniques,
    and automatic speech recognition (ASR) techniques robust to reverberation. To
    evaluate state-of-the-art algorithms and obtain new insights regarding potential
    future research directions, we propose a common evaluation framework including
    datasets, tasks, and evaluation metrics for both speech enhancement and ASR techniques.
    The proposed framework will be used as a common basis for the REVERB (REverberant
    Voice Enhancement and Recognition Benchmark) challenge. This paper describes the
    rationale behind the challenge, and provides a detailed description of the evaluation
    framework and benchmark results.
