When a person listens to sound, the brain time-locks to specific aspects of the sound. This is
called neural tracking and it can be investigated by analysing neural responses (eg …

The older listener's ability to understand speech in challenging environments may be
affected by impaired temporal processing. This review summarizes objective evidence of …

People suffering from hearing impairment often have difficulties participating in
conversations in so-called cocktail party scenarios where multiple individuals are …

Background: Older adults process speech differently, but it is not yet clear how aging affects
different levels of processing natural, continuous speech, both in terms of bottom-up acoustic …

Hearing-impaired people often struggle to follow the speech stream of an individual talker in
noisy environments. Recent studies show that the brain tracks attended speech and that the …

Listening to speech with poor signal quality is challenging. Neural speech tracking of
degraded speech has been used to advance the understanding of how brain processes and …

Attention as a cognition ability plays a crucial role in perception which helps humans to
concentrate on specific objects of the environment while discarding others. In this paper …

The multivariate temporal response function (mTRF) is an effective tool for investigating the
neural encoding of acoustic and complex linguistic features in natural continuous speech. In …

Single-channel speech enhancement algorithms have seen great improvements over the
past few years. Despite these improvements, they still lack the efficiency of the auditory …

Acquiring a new language requires individuals to simultaneously and gradually learn
linguistic attributes on multiple levels. Here, we investigated how this learning process …
