Some speech recognition data suggest that children rely less on voice pitch and harmonicity to support auditory scene analysis than adults. Two experiments evaluated development of speech-in-speech re...
Listeners were 5- to 7-year-olds and adults with normal hearing. Targets were monosyllabic words organized into three-word sets that differ in vowel content. Maskers were two-talker or one-talker stre...
Children performed more poorly than adults overall. For the two-talker masker, this age effect was smaller for the whispered target and masker than for the other three conditions. Children's SRTs in t...
These results provide no compelling evidence that young school-age children and adults are differentially sensitive to the cues present in voiced and whispered speech. Both groups benefit from mismatc...
Speech production is affected in a variety of serious mental illnesses (SMI; e.g., schizophrenia, unipolar depression, bipolar disorders) and at its extremes can be observed in the gross reduction of ...
Transcribing disordered speech can be useful when diagnosing motor speech disorders such as primary progressive apraxia of speech (PPAOS), who have sound additions, deletions, and substitutions, or di...
Forty-five patients with PPAOS and 22 healthy controls were recorded repeating 13 words, 3 times each, which were transcribed manually and using wav2vec 2.0. The WER and phonetic and prosodic speech e...
Mean overall WER was 0.88 for patients and 0.33 for controls. WER significantly correlated with AOS severity and accurately distinguished between patients and controls but not between AOS subtypes. Th...
This study demonstrates that ASR can be useful in differentiating healthy from disordered speech and evaluating PPAOS severity but does not distinguish PPAOS subtypes. ASR transcriptions showed weak a...

A database of dysphonic speech recordings was created and tested against 3 speech recognition platforms. Platform performance on dysphonic voice input was compared to platform performance on normal vo...
All platforms performed well on normal voice, and 2 platforms performed significantly worse on dysphonic speech. Accuracy metrics on dysphonic speech returned values of 84.55%, 88.57%, and 93.56% for ...
Current speech recognition systems generally perform worse on dysphonic speech than on normal speech. We theorize that poor performance is a consequence of a lack of dysphonic voices in each platform'...
This study explored the effects of different face masks on school-age children's and young adults' word recognition....
Speech recognition thresholds were measured adaptively in a two-talker speech masker using a closed-set picture pointing task. Target words were recorded by a female talker in five conditions: no mask...
Thirty children (8-12 years) and 25 adults (18-25 years) with normal hearing....
Both children's and adults' word recognition was most negatively impacted by the face shield. Children's recognition was also impaired by the transparent mask. No negative effects were observed for th...
School-age children, like young adults, are negatively affected by face masks when recognising speech in a two-talker speech masker, but the effects depend on the type of face mask being worn. Acousti...
Behaviorally, acquired apraxia of speech (AOS) is a multidimensional syndrome that the experienced clinician recognizes based on impaired articulation and abnormal temporal prosody. We conducted this ...
The study involved retrospective analysis of 195 participants with stroke-induced aphasia. We used three quantitative measures (phonemic error frequency, distortion error frequency, and word syllable ...
The measures distributed as multidimensional spectra rather than discrete diagnostic entities, and there was considerable behavioral overlap among participant groups. Thirty percent of participants pr...
The results suggest that the current AOS-APP dichotomy has limited validity. We conclude that a continuous multidimensional view of speech variation would be a constructive perspective from which to u...

Sensorimotor integration during speech has been investigated by altering the sound of a speaker's voice in real time; in response, the speaker learns to change their production of speech sounds in ord...
This study investigates the debate that musicians have an advantage in speech-in-noise perception from years of targeted auditory training. We also consider the effect of age on any such advantage, co...
Participants (ranging in age from 18 to 66 years) included 29 musicians and 26 nonmusicians. They completed two tasks varying in attentional demands: (a) a selective attention task where listeners ide...

In the optical system for reconstructing speech signals based on laser speckle images, the resonance between the sound source and nearby objects leads to frequency response problem, which seriously af...
Several attempts for speech brain-computer interfacing (BCI) have been made to decode phonemes, sub-words, words, or sentences using invasive measurements, such as the electrocorticogram (ECoG), durin...
