The Cortical Dynamics of Intelligible Speech [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2008 An important and unresolved question is how the human brain processes speech for meaning after initial analyses in early auditory cortical regions. A variety of left-hemispheric areas have been identified that clearly support semantic processing, although a systematic analysis of directed interactions among these areas is lacking.

The clear speech intelligibility benefit for text-to-speech voices: Effects of speaking style and visual guise [PDF]
JASA Express Letters, 2022 This study examined how speaking style and guise influence the intelligibility of text-to-speech (TTS) and naturally produced human voices. Results showed that TTS voices were less intelligible overall.

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 ...

Cepstral analysis based on the Glimpse proportion measure for improving the intelligibility of HMM-based synthetic speech in noise [PDF]
, 2012 In this paper we introduce a new cepstral coefficient extraction method based on an intelligibility measure for speech in noise, the Glimpse Proportion measure.

Prediction of Speech Intelligibility by Means of EEG Responses to Sentences in Noise
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022 ObjectiveUnderstanding speech in noisy conditions is challenging even for people with mild hearing loss, and intelligibility for an individual person is usually evaluated by using several subjective test methods.

Preoperative Voice Parameters Affect the Postoperative Speech Intelligibility in Patients with Cochlear Implantation [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2012 ObjectivesVerbal communication depends on a good function of voice and speech organs. Some of the voice characteristics of deaf people differ considerably from those of speakers with normal hearing.

Is speech intelligibility what speech intelligibility tests test?
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2022 Natural, conversational speech signals contain sources of symbolic and iconic information, both of which are necessary for the full understanding of speech. But speech intelligibility tests, which are generally derived from written language, present only symbolic information sources, including lexical semantics and syntactic structures.

Intelligible Lip-to-Speech Synthesis with Speech Units
INTERSPEECH 2023, 2023 In this paper, we propose a novel Lip-to-Speech synthesis (L2S) framework, for synthesizing intelligible speech from a silent lip movement video. Specifically, to complement the insufficient supervisory signal of the previous L2S model, we propose to use quantized self-supervised speech representations, named speech units, as an additional prediction ...
