Intelligibility of speech spoken in noise and reverberation
When we speak in an environment with noise, we often modify our speech production, and speech spoken in noise is generally more intelligible than speech produced in a quiet environment, which is known as the Lombard effect. Our goal is to provide intelligible speech announcements in noisy and/or reverberant public spaces, such as train stations. Thus, the present paper examines whether speech s...
متن کاملSpeech intelligibility prediction in reverberation: Towards an integrated model of speech transmission, spatial unmasking, and binaural de-reverberation.
Room acoustic indicators of intelligibility have focused on the effects of temporal smearing of speech by reverberation and masking by diffuse ambient noise. In the presence of a discrete noise source, these indicators neglect the binaural listener's ability to separate target speech from noise. Lavandier and Culling [(2010). J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 127, 387-399] proposed a model that incorporates ...
متن کاملPrediction of binaural speech intelligibility against noise in rooms.
In the presence of competing speech or noise, reverberation degrades speech intelligibility not only by its direct effect on the target but also by affecting the interferer. Two experiments were designed to validate a method for predicting the loss of intelligibility associated with this latter effect. Speech reception thresholds were measured under headphones, using spatially separated target ...
متن کاملA metric for predicting binaural speech intelligibility in stationary noise and competing speech maskers.
One criterion in the design of binaural sound scenes in audio production is the extent to which the intended speech message is correctly understood. Object-based audio broadcasting systems have permitted sound editors to gain more access to the metadata (e.g., intensity and location) of each sound source, providing better control over speech intelligibility. The current study describes and eval...
متن کاملPrediction of Binaural Intelligibility Level Differences in Reverberation
Speech intelligibility can be substantially improved when speech and interfering noise are spatially separated. This spatial unmasking is commonly attributed to effects of head shadow and binaural auditory processing. In reverberant rooms spatial unmasking is generally reduced. In this study spatial unmasking is systematically measured in reverberant conditions for several configurations of bin...
