We tested a model developed by Hongisto [1] which predicts the decrease of cognitive performance as a function of speech intelligibility, depicted by the Speech Transmission Index (STI).
However, as discussed above emotional speech varies as a function of speech tempo [49].
We are aware that the syllabic rate as a correlate of speech rate is inferior to the perceptual local speech rate (PLSR) proposed by Pfitzinger [21], as the local syllable rate and the local phone rate are not well-correlated, since they represent different perceptual aspects of speech rate.
The influence of speech rate on stuttering frequency, speaker-judged speech effort, and listener-judged naturalness was also examined.
Slowing of speech rate 18.
This will enable identifying which assessment methodology is better as a function of the running speech coding scheme.
(a) Output SNR and (b) speech distortion index as a function of P′ for a speech signal with full-rank covariance matrix.
Although Habermas often presents his pragmatics as a further development in analytic theories of meaning, his analysis focuses primarily on the context-sensitive acceptability of speech acts: acceptability conditions as a function of formal features that distinguish different speech situations.
This hypothesis is worth examining as stalling can be regarded as a way of reducing speech rate.
(a) Output SNR and (b) speech distortion index as a function of the input SNR for a speech signal with full-rank covariance matrix.
