The ecological utility of extended high frequencies for speech recognition
B. Monson
Abstract:Recent studies have demonstrated that extended high frequencies (EHFs; >8 kHz) in speech are audible and useful for speech recognition. In this paper I review recent and ongoing work in our lab examining audibility of EHF cues in speech and the conditions under which these cues are useful. Mismatches in head orientations between a target talker (facing the listener) and masker talkers (not facing the listener) influence the utility of EHFs. For example, EHFs provide a speech recognition benefit when masker tal… Show more
