The zerospeech2020 program provides 2 command-line tools:

• zerospeech2020-validate which validates a submission, ensuring all the required files are here and correctly formatted.

• zerospeech2020-evaluate which evaluates a submission (supposed valid). Only the development datasets are evaluated. the surprise datasets can only be evaluated by doing an official submission to the challenge.

Each tool comes with a --help option describing the possible arguments (e.g. zerospeech2020-validate --help).
