چکیده

The STI (speech transmission index) and SII (speech intelligibility index) are the two primary objective rating metrics for speech intelligibility. The differences between their calculation models and measured data are examined in this study, and the results show that there is no fundamental difference between them, except those caused due to the different calculation models. Therefore, both STI and SII can be used as objective rating methods for speech intelligibility.

Evaluating a distortion-weighted glimpsing metric for predicting binaural speech intelligibility in rooms

A distortion-weighted glimpse proportion metric (BiDWGP) for predicting binaural speech intelligibility were evaluated in simulated anechoic and reverberant conditions, with and without a noise masker. The predictive performance of BiDWGP was compared to four reference binaural intelligibility metrics, which were extended from the Speech Intelligibility Index (SII) and the Speech Transmission I...

مدل میکروسکوپی دوگوشی مبتنی بر فیلتر بانک مدولاسیون برای پیش گویی قابلیت فهم گفتار در افراد دارای شنوایی عادی

In this study, a binaural microscopic model for the prediction of speech intelligibility based on the modulation filter bank is introduced. So far, the spectral criteria such as the STI and SII or other analytical methods have been used in the binaural models to determine the binaural intelligibility. In the proposed model, unlike all models of binaural intelligibility prediction, an automatic ...

A comparison of NAL and DSL prescriptive methods for paediatric hearing-aid fitting: predicted speech intelligibility and loudness.

OBJECTIVE To examine the impact of prescription on predicted speech intelligibility and loudness for children. DESIGN A between-group comparison of speech intelligibility index (SII) and loudness, based on hearing aids fitted according to NAL-NL1, DSL v4.1, or DSL m[i/o] prescriptions. A within-group comparison of gains prescribed by DSL m[i/o] and NAL-NL2 for children in terms of SII and lou...

Speech 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...

Speech development and auditory performance in children after cochlear implantation

 Abstract Background: The aim of this study was to determine the auditory performance of congenitally deaf children and the effect of cochlear implantation (CI) on speech intelligibility. Methods: Aprospective study was undertaken on 47 children in a pediatric tertiary referral center for CI. All children were deaf prelingually and were younger than 8 years of age. They were followed up until 5...
