Human listeners are assumed to apply different strategies to improve speech recognition in
background noise. Young listeners with normal hearing (NH), eg, have been shown to follow …

Auditory training can lead to notable enhancements in specific tasks, but whether these
improvements generalize to untrained tasks like speech-in-noise (SIN) recognition remains …

abstract Voice cues, such as fundamental frequency (F0) and vocal tract length (VTL), help
listeners identify the speaker's gender, perceive the linguistic and emotional prosody, and …

Cochlear implant (CI) users with prelingual deafness (hearing impairment started before
language development was completed) show variable speech-in-noise (SIN) …

The human voice is a critical stimulus for the auditory system that promotes social
connection, informs the listener about identity and emotion, and acts as the carrier for …

Efficient talker discrimination (TD) improves speech understanding under multi-talker
conditions. So far, TD of children has been assessed using various testing parameters …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine the independent and combined
contributions of fundamental frequency (F0) and vocal tract length (VTL) differences on …

Purpose: Cochlear implant (CI) users demonstrate poor voice discrimination (VD) in quiet
conditions based on the speaker's fundamental frequency (fo) and formant frequencies (ie …

Modern cochlear implants (CIs) generate electric current pulsatile stimuli from real-time
incoming to stimulate residual auditory nerves of deaf ears. In this unique way, deaf people …

Speech change is a biometric marker for Parkinson's disease (PD). However, evaluating
speech variability across diverse languages is challenging. We aimed to develop a cross …
