The effect of formant trajectories and phoneme durations on vowel intelligibility
We examined how much listeners can benefit from listening to “clear” (CLR) speech compared to “conversational” (CNV) speech, both spoken at different speaking rates. Vowe...

Speech bandwidth extension using Gaussian mixture model-based estimation of the highband mel spectrum
The quality and intelligibility of narrowband telephone speech can be enhanced by artifical bandwidth extension. This study combines Gaussian mixture model-based (GMM) mel spectr...
