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 ...

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

The Cortical Dynamics of Intelligible Speech [PDF]

open access: yesThe 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.

Is speech intelligibility what speech intelligibility tests test?

open access: yesThe 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.
