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

open access: yesJASA 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.

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

open access: yesNeuroImage, 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 ...

The intelligibility of pointillistic speech [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2009
A form of processed speech is described that is highly discriminable in a closed-set identification format. The processing renders speech into a set of sinusoidal pulses played synchronously across frequency. The processing and results from several experiments are described.

The Intelligibility of Interrupted Speech [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1948
This paper concerns the effects of interrupting speech waves—turning them on and off intermittently or masking them with intermittent noise—upon their intelligibility. The effects were studied with various rates of interruption and with the speech left undisturbed various percentages of the time.

Neural Entrainment to Speech Modulates Speech Intelligibility [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2018
Speech is crucial for communication in everyday life. Speech-brain entrainment, the alignment of neural activity to the slow temporal fluctuations (envelope) of acoustic speech input, is a ubiquitous element of current theories of speech processing. Associations between speech-brain entrainment and acoustic speech signal, listening task, and speech ...

Intelligibility of temporally interrupted speech [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1971
The variations in intelligibility of a temporally interrupted connected discourse passage that result from changes in both switching conditions and message rate were studied. Six normal-hearing listeners estimated the intelligibility of ten, 15-sec speech samples presented monaurally at 36 interruption conditions (12 interruption rates × 3 speech-time ...

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

open access: yesBrain 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

open access: yesДоклады 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
