Dysarthria, a motor speech disorder caused by muscle weakness or paralysis, severely impacts speech intelligibility and quality of life. The condition is prevalent in motor speech disorders such as ...
Objectively predicting speech intelligibility is important in both telecommunication and human-machine interaction systems. The classic method relies on signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) to successfully ...
Cochlear implant (CI) users typically achieve satisfactory speech intelligibility in quiet environments such as a sound booth used for testing in audiology clinics. However, they encounter difficulty ...
Abstract: Mobile devices are widely used today for speech communication. The environments in which these devices are used are widely varied and often the level of background noise in the speaker's ...
Abstract: In the development process of noise-reduction algorithms, an objective machine-driven intelligibility measure which shows high correlation with speech intelligibility is of great interest.
The success of conventional hearing rehabilitation in patients with mixed (MHL) or conductive (CHL) hearing loss (middle ear surgery followed by postoperative fitting of conventional hearing aids) is ...
Electrophysiological studies have shown that brain tracks different speech features. How these neural tracking measures are modulated by speech intelligibility, however, remained elusive. Using ...
Speech intelligibility refers to how well someone understands a verbal message. Usually, this measure is taken from assessment conducted in a controlled or quiet environment. However, in functional ...
Dutch Fork High School, Irmo, SC, USA. If the sound is more concentrated in one direction, there will be an additional factor (>1) for that direction. This relationship applies to the direct sound and ...
