Predicting Intelligibility Deficits in Parkinson's Disease With Perceptual Speech Ratings.
Journal of Speech, Language and Hearing Research, 2020Purpose This study investigated whether perceptual ratings of speech parameters were predictive of transcription intelligibility in quiet and in noise for speakers with Parkinson's disease (PD).

Intelligibility of Children’s Speech in Digitized Speech
Augmentative and Alternative Communication, 2012The current investigation examined the intelligibility of digitized speech recorded from typically developing child speakers, ages 4, 5, 6, and 7 years, and reproduced on an augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) device with digitized speech output. The study used a between group design.

Coherence and the Speech Intelligibility Index
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2004Noise and distortion reduce the sound quality in hearing aids, but there is no established procedure for calculating sound quality in these devices. This presentation introduces a new intelligibility and sound-quality calculation procedure based on the Speech Intelligibility Index [ANSI S3.5-1997].

EEG can predict speech intelligibility
Journal of Neural Engineering, 2019Objective. Speech signals have a remarkable ability to entrain brain activity to the rapid fluctuations of speech sounds. For instance, one can readily measure a correlation of the sound amplitude with the evoked responses of the electroencephalogram ...

Automatic enhancement of speech intelligibility
2000 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing. Proceedings (Cat. No.00CH37100), 2002This paper presents a speech signal transformation which slows down speech signals selectively and enhances some important acoustic cues. This transformation can be used not only for hearing aids but also for second language acquisition by facilitating oral comprehension. Selective slowing down relies on the use the TD-PSOLA synthesis method.

Speech intelligibility assessment in a helium environment. II. The speech intelligibility index
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1998The Speech Intelligibility Index (SII) was measured for Navy divers participating in two saturation deep dives and for a group of nondivers to test different communication systems and their components. These SIIs were validated using the Speech Perception in Noise (SPIN) test and the Griffiths version of the Modified Rhyme Test (GMRT).

Older adults, even those with normal or near-normal audiograms, report greater subjective listening difficulty in everyday life compared to younger adults. However, their difficulties are not well predicted from pure-tone or speech audiometry in quiet or noise.

Speech is a most efficient means of communication that is resilient to background noise, interference and distortion. It can be understood despite different voices and accents, even on the telephone with no visual cues and a very restricted frequency range.

Intelligibility of Diphasic Speech
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1956This study concerns the intelligibility of speech under various periodic switching operations. In diphasic speech the signal is separated into successive segments which are reversed in phase. The intelligibility of this speech was found to be high for switching frequencies below about 100 cps; in the intermediate audio-frequency region the ...

The effect of speech and speech intelligibility on task performance
Ergonomics, 2006The aim of this study was to find out what are the effects of three different sound environments on performance of cognitive tasks of varying complexity. These three sound environments were 'speech', 'masked speech' and 'continuous noise'. They corresponded to poor, acceptable and perfect acoustical privacy in an open-plan office, respectively.
