Checkerboard speech vs interrupted speech: Effects of spectrotemporal segmentation on intelligibility [PDF]

JASA Express Letters, 2021
The intelligibility of interrupted speech (interrupted over time) and checkerboard speech (interrupted over time-by-frequency), both of which retained a half of the original speech, was examined.

Sensory representations and pupil-indexed listening effort provide complementary contributions to multi-talker speech intelligibility [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Multi-talker speech intelligibility requires successful separation of the target speech from background speech. Successful speech segregation relies on bottom-up neural coding fidelity of sensory information and top-down effortful listening.

Objective speech intelligibility prediction using a deep learning model with continuous speech-evoked cortical auditory responses

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Auditory prostheses provide an opportunity for rehabilitation of hearing-impaired patients. Speech intelligibility can be used to estimate the extent to which the auditory prosthesis improves the user’s speech comprehension.

Multivariate fMRI responses in superior temporal cortex predict visual contributions to, and individual differences in, the intelligibility of noisy speech

NeuroImage, 2023
Humans have the unique ability to decode the rapid stream of language elements that constitute speech, even when it is contaminated by noise. Two reliable observations about noisy speech perception are that seeing the face of the talker improves ...

Utility of the Intelligibility in Context Scale for Predicting Speech Intelligibility of Children with Cerebral Palsy

Brain Sciences, 2021
The Intelligibility in Context Scale (ICS) is a widely used, efficient tool for describing a child’s speech intelligibility. Few studies have explored the relationship between ICS scores and transcription intelligibility scores, which are the gold ...

Multi-modal cross-linguistic perception of Mandarin tones in clear speech

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023
Clearly enunciated speech (relative to conversational, plain speech) involves articulatory and acoustic modifications that enhance auditory–visual (AV) segmental intelligibility.

INTELLIGIBILITY OF THE KAZAKH SPEECH WHEN IT'S PROTECTED WITH COMBINED MASKING SIGNALS

Доклады Белорусского государственного университета информатики и радиоэлектроники, 2020
The article is devoted to assessing the intelligibility of the Kazakh speech when it's masked by combined signals, including «white» noise and speech-like signals. The phonetics features of the Kazakh language have been considered taking into account the

Speech Intelligibility in Reverberation is Reduced During Self-Rotation

Trends in Hearing, 2023
Speech intelligibility in cocktail party situations has been traditionally studied for stationary sound sources and stationary participants. Here, speech intelligibility and behavior were investigated during active self-rotation of standing participants ...
