Statistical and Neural Network Based Speech Activity Detection in Non-Stationary Acoustic Environments [PDF]
Speech activity detection (SAD), which often rests on the fact that the noise is "more" stationary than speech, is particularly challenging in non-stationary environments, because the time variance of the acoustic scene makes it difficult to discriminate speech from noise.

Decision Processes in Speech Discrimination as Revealed by Confidence Ratings
Standard speech discrimination tests require the listener to make a decision about a given sequence of stimuli. For example, with the ABX test the listener is required to determine whether the third stimulus is most like the first or most like the second.

The relationship of phonological ability, speech perception, and auditory perception in adults with dyslexia [PDF]
This study investigated whether auditory, speech perception and phonological skills are tightly interrelated or independently contributing to reading. We assessed each of these three skills in 36 adults with a past diagnosis of dyslexia and 54 matched ...

Perceptimatic: A human speech perception benchmark for unsupervised subword modelling [PDF]
In this paper, we present a data set and methods to compare speech processing models and human behaviour on a phone discrimination task. We provide Perceptimatic, an open data set which consists of French and English speech stimuli, as well as the results of 91 English- and 93 French-speaking listeners.

Speaker recognition using frequency filtered spectral energies [PDF]
The spectral parameters that result from filtering the frequency sequence of log mel-scaled filter-bank energies with a simple first or second order FIR filter have proved to be an efficient speech representation in terms of both speech recognition ...
