Binaural intelligibility prediction based on the speech transmission index

open access: yesJournal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2008
Although the speech transmission index (STI) is a well-accepted and standardized method for objective prediction of speech intelligibility in a wide range of environments and applications, it is essentially a monaural model. Advantages of binaural hearing in speech intelligibility are disregarded.

A neural network for blind identification of speech transmission index

open access: yes2003 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 2003. Proceedings. (ICASSP '03)., 2003
A hybrid neural network model is proposed to determine the speech transmission index of a transmission channel from transmitted speech signals without resort to prior knowledge of original speech. It comprises a Hilbert transform pre-processor, a PCA network for speech feature extraction and a multilayer back-propagation network for nonlinear mapping ...

A method to determine the speech transmission index from speech waveforms

Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1999
A method for computing the speech transmission index (STI) using real speech stimuli is presented and evaluated. The method reduces the effects of some of the artifacts that can be encountered when speech waveforms are used as probe stimuli. Speech-based STIs are computed for conversational and clearly articulated speech in several noisy, reverberant ...

A new verification of the speech transmission index for the English language

Speech Communication, 2018
Abstract The speech transmission index (STI) is one of the most widely used and standardized methods for objective prediction of speech intelligibility of transmission channels. The original verification of the relationship between the STI and the intelligibility for the English language was published in 1987.

Analysis of speech-based speech transmission index methods with implications for nonlinear operations

Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2004
The Speech Transmission Index (STI) is a physical metric that is well correlated with the intelligibility of speech degraded by additive noise and reverberation. The traditional STI uses modulated noise as a probe signal and is valid for assessing degradations that result from linear operations on the speech signal. Researchers have attempted to extend

Using the Speech Transmission Index for predicting non-native speech intelligibility

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2004
While the Speech Transmission Index (STI) is widely applied for prediction of speech intelligibility in room acoustics and telecommunication engineering, it is unclear how to interpret STI values when non-native talkers or listeners are involved.

Objective measurement of the speech transmission quality of vocoders by means of the Speech Transmission Index

open access: yes, 2005
Nearly all types of military speech communication involve the use of so-called (narrow band) voice coders or vocoders. Usually the Speech Transmission Index (STI) uses artificial test signals, which can not be reproduced by vocoders with the usual fidelity. Therefore the STI is not able to evaluate vocoders at this time.

Relationship between Chinese speech intelligibility and speech transmission index in rooms based on auralization

Speech Communication, 2011
Based on simulated monaural and binaural room impulse responses, the relationship between Chinese speech intelligibility scores and speech transmission index (STI) including the effect of noise is investigated using a phonetically balanced test in virtual rooms. The results show that Chinese speech intelligibility scores increase monotonically with STI

Relationship between Chinese speech intelligibility and speech transmission index using diotic listening

Speech Communication, 2007
The speech intelligibility in rooms is evaluated using the room impulse responses obtained from the room acoustical simulation software ODEON. The simulated room impulse responses are first convolved with the speech intelligibility test signals recorded in an anechoic chamber, then reproduced through the earphone.
