Title
Semi-non-intrusive objective intelligibility measure using spatial filtering in hearing aids.
Abstract
Reliable non-intrusive online assessment of speech intelligibility can play a key role for the functioning of hearing aids, e.g. as guidance for adjusting the hearing aid settings to the environment. While existing intrusive metrics can provide a precise and reliable measure, the current non-intrusive metrics have not been able to achieve acceptable intelligibility predictions. This paper presents a new semi-non-intrusive intelligibility measure based on an existing intrusive measure, STOI, where an estimate of the clean speech is extracted using spatial filtering in the hearing aid. The results indicate that the STOI score obtained with the proposed method using an estimate of the clean speech correlates well with the STOI score having the original clean speech signal available.
