The intelligibility of pointillistic speech [PDF]
The 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.

Speech intelligibility in virtual restaurants [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2016 Speech reception thresholds (SRTs) for a target voice on the same virtual table were measured in various restaurant simulations under conditions of masking by between one and eight interferers at other tables. Results for different levels of reverberation and different simulation techniques were qualitatively similar.
