Licensing paradox

Open hzc12321 opened this issue 9 months ago • 1 comments

In readme.md, it is mentioned that :

Some code are borrowed from following projects:

LIA and EAT are licensed under Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International, commercial usage is not permitted. However, EDTalk itself is licensed under Apache 2.0 which permits commercial usage. Based on my understanding, the portions of EDTalk that include or adapt code from LIA or EAT must themselves remain non‑commercial, I'm looking for clarification and confirmation about this. If this is true, I wish to know exactly which part of EDTalk is borrowed from LIA and EAT.

Thank you for open sourcing such a great project!

@hzc12321 The entire codebase (except for audio part, dictionary decompostion) is built on LIA (e.g., architecture, learning, motion dictionary, linear navigation).
