This study compares the phoneme recognition performance in speech-shaped noise of a
microscopic model for speech recognition with the performance of normal-hearing …

Responses obtained in consonant perception experiments typically show a large variability
across stimuli of the same phonetic identity. The present study investigated the influence of …

This study investigates behavioural and objective measures of temporal auditory processing
and their relation to the ability to understand speech in noise. The experiments were carried …

Purpose: There is limited access to audiology services for the growing population of Spanish–
English bilinguals in the United States. Online auditory testing can potentially provide a cost …

In face-to-face speech communication, the listener extracts and integrates information from
the acoustic and optic speech signals. Integration occurs within the auditory modality (ie …

The perception of consonants in background noise has been investigated in various studies
and was shown to critically depend on fine details in the stimuli. In this study, a microscopic …

Cross-channel envelope correlations are hypothesized to influence speech intelligibility,
particularly in adverse conditions. Acoustic analyses suggest speech envelope correlations …

The relative importance of individual frequency regions for speech intelligibility has been
firmly established for broadband auditory-only (AO) conditions. Yet, speech communication …

The role of the auditory system is to process the acoustic information that originates from
various environmental sources. Two general aspects pertain to this function. The first relates …

Normal-hearing listeners show masking release, or better speech understanding in a
fluctuating-amplitude masker than in a steady-amplitude masker, but most cochlear implant …
