Abstract

Degraded speech intelligibility in multitalker situations can be improved by spatial unmasking, using sound spatialization techniques such as binaural synthesis. However, intelligibility also depends on the ability to focus efficiently on the target. Three experimental sessions explored the benefit of an additional vibrotactile cue, spatialized around the waist, on intelligibility in different spatialized multitalker situations. Results indicate improvements in intelligibility scores and reduced listening effort specifically for an off-center target among masker talkers. Multimodality allows us to better understand the mechanisms of auditory attention and to open up new perspectives for improving speech intelligibility in multitalker situations.

基于振动触觉空间线索的多人交谈情境下的语音清晰度。
使用双耳合成等声音空间化技术,可以通过空间去掩码来改善多语者情况下退化的语音清晰度。然而,可理解性也取决于能否有效地将注意力集中在目标上。三个实验阶段探讨了在不同的空间化多语者情境下,额外的空间化腰部振动触觉提示对可理解性的好处。结果表明,在蒙面说话者中,可理解性分数有所提高,特别是对于偏离中心的目标,听力努力有所减少。多模态使我们能够更好地理解听觉注意的机制,并为提高多语者的语音清晰度开辟了新的视角。
