Speech-in-speech recognition in preschoolers
International Journal of Audiology, 2022The purpose of this study was to 1) characterise word recognition in a speech masker for preschoolers tested using closed-set, forced-choice procedures and 2) better understand the stimulus and listener factors affecting performance.Speech recognition thresholds (SRTs) in a two-talker masker were evaluated using a picture-pointing response with two ...

Maturation of Speech-in-Speech Recognition for Whispered and Voiced Speech
Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022Purpose: Some speech recognition data suggest that children rely less on voice pitch and harmonicity to support auditory scene analysis than adults. Two experiments evaluated development of speech-in-speech recognition using voiced speech and whispered speech, which lacks the harmonic structure of voiced speech.

Effect of speech rate on speech-on-speech masking
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2008Target speech can be better recognized under speech-on-speech masking conditions if certain differences between target and masker (e.g. in loudness, pitch, location) can be used as cues for streaming. This study examined whether the speech rate can be used by listeners as a cue for unmasking target speech. The rate difference between target and masking

Memory for Speech and Speech for Memory
Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1975Thirty kindergarteners, 15 who substituted /w/ for /r/ and 15 with correct articulation, received two perception tests and a memory test that included /w/ and /r/ in minimally contrastive syllables. Although both groups had nearly perfect perception of the experimenter’s productions of /w/ and /r/, misarticulating subjects perceived their own tape ...

Annual Review of Psychology, 2004
This chapter focuses on one of the first steps in comprehending spoken language: How do listeners extract the most fundamental linguistic elements—consonants and vowels, or the distinctive features which compose them—from the acoustic signal? We begin by describing three major theoretical perspectives on the perception of speech.

Speech synthesis and speech perception
1988Vocoder synthesizers The pace of research on the perception of speech corresponds in a meaningful way with the development of speech synthesizers. The initial impetus for work on speech synthesis was commercial. In the 1930s Dudley and his colleagues at Bell Telephone Laboratories developed the Vocoder (Dudley, 1936, 1939).
