Neural Entrainment to Speech Modulates Speech Intelligibility
Speech is crucial for communication in everyday life. Speech-brain entrainment, the alignment of neural activity to the slow temporal fluctuations (envelope) of acoustic speech input, is a ubiquitous element of current theories of speech processing. Associations between speech-brain entrainment and acoustic speech signal, listening task, and speech intelligibility have been observed repeatedly....
متن کاملText-To-Speech Intelligibility Across Speech Rates
A web-based listening test measured intelligibility across speech rate of 8 TTS systems and of a linearly timecompressed human speech reference voice. The synthesis systems included 2 independent representatives of each of the following 4 synthesis methods: formant, diphone concatenation, unit selection concatenation, and HMM. For each TTS system, a female and a male American English voice were...
متن کاملIntelligibility predictors and neural representation of speech
Intelligibility predictors tell us a great deal about human speech perception, in particular which acoustic factors strongly effect human behavior, and which do not. A particular intelligibility predictor, the Articulation Index (AI), is interesting because it models human behavior in noise, and its form has implications about representation of speech in the brain. Specifically, the Articulatio...
متن کاملPhase Entrainment of Brain Oscillations Causally Modulates Neural Responses to Intelligible Speech
Due to their periodic nature, neural oscillations might represent an optimal "tool" for the processing of rhythmic stimulus input [1-3]. Indeed, the alignment of neural oscillations to a rhythmic stimulus, often termed phase entrainment, has been repeatedly demonstrated [4-7]. Phase entrainment is central to current theories of speech processing [8-10] and has been associated with successful sp...
متن کاملSpeech Intelligibility of Cochlear-Implanted and Normal-Hearing Children
Introduction: Speech intelligibility, the ability to be understood verbally by listeners, is the gold standard for assessing the effectiveness of cochlear implantation. Thus, the goal of this study was to compare the speech intelligibility between normal-hearing and cochlear-implanted children using the Persian intelligibility test. Materials and Methods: Twenty-six cochlear-implanted childre...
