Journal ArticleDOI
Speech recognition with amplitude and frequency modulations
Fan-Gang Zeng,Kaibao Nie,Ginger S. Stickney,Ying-Yee Kong,Michael Vongphoe,Ashish Bhargave,Chao-gang Wei,Ke-li Cao +7 more
TL;DR: It is found that although AM from a limited number of spectral bands may be sufficient for speech recognition in quiet, FM significantly enhancesspeech recognition in noise, as well as speaker and tone recognition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Speech and melody recognition in binaurally combined acoustic and electric hearing
TL;DR: The present study utilizes the residual acoustic hearing in the nonimplanted ear in five cochlear implant users to elucidate the role of temporal fine structure at low frequencies in auditory perception and to test the hypothesis that combined acoustic and electric hearing produces better performance than either mode alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cochlear implant speech recognition with speech maskers.
TL;DR: Evidence is interpreted for a significant role of informational masking and modulation interference in cochlear implant speech recognition with fluctuating maskers that may originate from increased target-masker similarity when spectral resolution is reduced.
Journal ArticleDOI
Encoding frequency Modulation to improve cochlear implant performance in noise
TL;DR: Improvement by as much as 71 percentage points was observed for sentence recognition in the presence of a competing voice and the present result strongly suggests that frequency modulation be extracted and encoded to improve cochlear implant performance in realistic listening situations.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the dichotomy in auditory perception between temporal envelope and fine structure cues (L)
Fan-Gang Zeng,Kaibao Nie,Sheng Liu,Ginger S. Stickney,Elsa Del Rio,Ying-Yee Kong,Hongbin Chen +6 more
TL;DR: This study addressed two technical issues related to natural cochlear filtering and artificial filter ringing in the chimaerizing algorithm and found that the temporal envelope determines sound location as long as the interaural level difference cue is present.
