Multiband product rule and consonant identification.
The multiband product rule, also known as band-independence, is a basic assumption of articulation index and its extension, the speech intelligibility index. Previously Fletcher showed its validity for a balanced mix of 20% consonant-vowel (CV), 20% vowel-consonant (VC), and 60% consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) sounds. This study repeats Miller and Nicely's version of the hi-/lo-pass experiment ...
متن کاملConsonant identification in consonant-vowel-consonant syllables in speech-spectrum noise.
Identification functions of 20 initial and 20 final consonants were characterized in 9600 randomly sampled consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) tokens presented in speech-spectrum noise. Because of differences in the response criteria for different consonants, signal detection measures were used to quantify identifiability. Consonant-specific baseline signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) were adjusted to p...
متن کاملVariability in noise-masked consonant identification
Speech communication commonly occurs in the presence of noise. Perceptual errors in the perception of noise-masked speech vary as a function of noise type (e.g., white noise, speech-shaped noise, multi-talker babble), listener characteristics (e.g., listeners with hearing loss, non-native listeners), and target stimulus properties (e.g., native language of the talker, casual vs clear speech). T...
متن کاملThe correlation between consonant identification and the amount of acoustic consonant reduction
Reduction causes changes in the acoustics of consonant realizations that affect their identification. In this study we try to identify some of the acoustic parameters that are correlated with this change in identification. Speaking style is used to manipulate the degree of reduction. Pairs of otherwise identical intervocalic consonants from read and spontaneous utterances are presented to subje...
متن کاملMeasuring consonant identification in nonsense syllables, words, and
Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) produces deficits in speech comprehension in noise that primarily are due to impairments in identifying consonants. Here, w e describe the California Syllable Test (CaST) that quant ifies the ident ification of common American English consonants. In experiment I, 16 young sub jects wi th normal hearing iden tified 720 consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) syll ables ...
