Effects of stimulus and noise rate variability on speech perception by younger and older adults.
The present experiments examine the effects of listener age and hearing sensitivity on the ability to understand temporally altered speech in quiet when the proportion of a sentence processed by time compression is varied. Additional conditions in noise investigate whether or not listeners are affected by alterations in the presentation rate of background speech babble, relative to the presenta...
متن کاملHuman Perception in Speech Processing
The emergence of heterogeneous networks and the rapid increase of Voice over IP (VoIP) applications provide important opportunities for the telecommunications market. These opportunities come at the price of increased complexity in the monitoring of the quality of service (QoS) and the need for adaptation of transmission systems to the changing environmental conditions. This thesis contains thr...
متن کاملCategorical perception of speech without stimulus repetition
We explored the perception of phonetic continua generated with an automated auditory morphing technique in three perceptual experiments. The use of large sets of stimuli allowed an assessment of the impact of single vs. paired presentation without the massed stimulus repetition typical of categorical perception experiments. A third experiment shows that such massed repetition alters the degree ...
متن کاملTalker variability in audio-visual speech perception
A change in talker is a change in the context for the phonetic interpretation of acoustic patterns of speech. Different talkers have different mappings between acoustic patterns and phonetic categories and listeners need to adapt to these differences. Despite this complexity, listeners are adept at comprehending speech in multiple-talker contexts, albeit at a slight but measurable performance c...
متن کاملCochlear Implants: Signal Processing and Speech Perception
Several million Americans today have profound hearing loss, and for years they had to rely on conventional hearing aids. Although hearing aids have been found to benefit hearing impaired individuals who suffer mild to moderate deafness, they do not seem to provide much benefit to individuals with profound (sensorineural) deafness. Today, a prosthetic device, a cochlear implant, can be implanted...
