A Novel Method for Intelligibility Assessment of Nonlinearly Processed Speech in Spaces Characterized by Long Reverberation Times

open access: yesSensors, 2022
Objective assessment of speech intelligibility is a complex task that requires taking into account a number of factors such as different perception of each speech sub-bands by the human hearing sense or different physical properties of each frequency ...

Avoiding distortions due to speech coding and transmission errors [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We have extended our previous research on a new approach to automatic speech recognition (ASR) in the GSM environment. Instead of recognizing from the decoded speech signal, our system works from the digital speech representation used by the GSM encoder.

Peculiarities of a Rarely Used Method of Measuring the Speech Transmission Index in Premises [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Evaluation of speech transmission index (STI) in premises allows for determining the speech intelligibility, and therefore the suitability of premises for speech communication.

Effects of acaoustic adaptation of classrooms on the quality of verbal communication

open access: yesMedycyna Pracy, 2013
Background: Voice organ disorders among teachers are caused by excessive voice strain. One of the measures to reduce this strain is to decrease background noise when teaching.

Acoustical Evaluation and Comparison Between Two Classroom Types in Erbil

open access: yesEurasian Journal of Science and Engineering, 2023
In order to acquire an effective learning process in lecture halls with good speech intelligibility, good acoustical performance is essential. Inappropriate acoustic quality in classrooms reduces learning quality experience and can induce emotional ...

Contribution of Low-Level Acoustic and Higher-Level Lexical-Semantic Cues to Speech Recognition in Noise and Reverberation

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2021
Masking noise and reverberation strongly influence speech intelligibility and decrease listening comfort. To optimize acoustics for ensuring a comfortable environment, it is crucial to understand the respective contribution of bottom-up signal-driven ...

On the disagreement between speech transmission index (STI) and speech intelligibility

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2000
The change tendency of speech transmission index (STI) was examined by calculation for several modeled sound fields. As a result, it has been revealed that STI contradicts the generally accepted concept of the importance of early energy for speech intelligibility.

Chinese Word Identification and Sentence Intelligibility in Primary School Classrooms

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2016
The Chinese word identification and sentence intelligibility are evaluated by grades 3 and 5 students in the classrooms with different reverberation times (RTs) from three primary school under different signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs).

Dysarthric speech classification from coded telephone speech using glottal features

open access: yes, 2021
This paper proposes a new dysarthric speech classification method from coded telephone speech using glottal features. The proposed method utilizes glottal features, which are efficiently estimated from coded telephone speech using a recently proposed ...
