Regional accents affect speech intelligibility in a multitalker environment
The current understanding of listener sensitivity to regional accents comes from examination of speech processing in quiet and in noise. This study had two aims: 1) to examine the intelligibility of regional accents in a multitalker environment, and 2) to explore a methodological question of whether systematic regional features can be detected in the productions of only one representative talke...
متن کاملSpeech localization in a multitalker mixture.
An experiment was performed that measured, for the frontal audio-visual horizon, how accurately listeners could localize a female-voice target amidst four spatially distributed male-voice maskers. To examine whether listeners can make use of a priori knowledge about the configuration of the sources, performance was examined in two conditions: either the masker locations were fixed (in one of fi...
متن کاملChildren's perception of speech in multitalker babble.
Children 5, 9, and 11 years of age and young adults attempted to identify the final word of sentences recorded by a female speaker. The sentences were presented in two levels of multitalker babble, and participants responded by selecting one of four pictures. In a low-noise condition, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) was adjusted for each age group to yield 85% correct performance. In a high-noi...
متن کاملA speech corpus for multitalker communications research.
Several recent experiments at the Air Force Research Laboratory have investigated the utility of spatial audio displays for augmenting speech intelligibility in multitalker communications environments ~Bolia et al., 1999; Nelson et al., 1998a; Nelson et al., 1998b; Simpson et al., 1999!. Some of the goals of this research included: ~1! an empirical determination of the maximal number of channel...
متن کاملA model for multitalker speech perception.
A listener's ability to understand a target speaker in the presence of one or more simultaneous competing speakers is subject to two types of masking: energetic and informational. Energetic masking takes place when target and interfering signals overlap in time and frequency resulting in portions of target becoming inaudible. Informational masking occurs when the listener is unable to distingui...
