The Intelligibility of Interrupted Speech [PDF]
The 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.

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023 Listeners are routinely exposed to many different types of speech, including artificially-enhanced and synthetic speech, styles which deviate to a greater or lesser extent from naturally-spoken exemplars.

MusicSwarm: Biologically Inspired Intelligence for Music Composition
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Biologically inspired swarms of frozen foundation models self‐organize to compose complex music without fine‐tuning. By coordinating through stigmergic signals, decentralized agents dynamically evolve specialized roles and adapt to solve complex tasks.

Speech intelligibility from image processing [PDF]
Speech Communication, 2010 Hearing loss research has traditionally been based on perceptual criteria, speech intelligibility and threshold levels. The development of computational models of the auditory periphery has allowed experimentation via simulation to provide quantitative, repeatable results at a more granular level than would be practical with clinical research on human ...

A study on the relationship between the intelligibility and quality of algorithmically-modified speech for normal hearing listeners [PDF]
, 2017 This study investigates the relationship between the intelligibility and quality of modified speech in noise and in quiet. Speech signals were processed by seven algorithms designed to increase speech intelligibility in noise without altering speech ...

Swallowing and Communication in Cockayne Syndrome: Clinical Characteristics and Management
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cockayne syndrome (CS) is an ultrarare genetic disorder associated with genes encoding proteins involved in DNA repair. The clinical course of CS involves neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative features, including swallowing and communication impairments.

Why We Need to Study Assisted Methods to Teach Typing to Nonspeaking Autistic People
Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT At least one third of autistic people have limited or no speech. Most nonspeaking autistic people are never provided alternatives that would enable the full range of expression that speech allows, significantly limiting their access to educational, social, and employment opportunities.

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.

Reconstructing intelligible audio speech from visual speech features [PDF]
, 2015 This work describes an investigation into the feasibility of producing intelligible audio speech from only visual speech fea- tures. The proposed method aims to estimate a spectral enve- lope from visual features which is then combined with an arti ...

Non-intrusive intelligibility prediction for Mandarin speech in noise [PDF]
, 2013 Most existing intelligibility indices require access to the input (clean) reference signal to predict speech intelligibility in noise. In some real-world applications, however, only the noise-masked speech is available, rendering existing indices of ...
