--00000000000090fa9705a2124d15 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Dear list, The email=E2=80=99s subject says it all: we are looking for audio-video (AV= ) speech materials for measuring speech intelligibility of sentences. In contrast to the common correspondence practice, this email actually concerns two questions. 1) Do you happen to have any AV speech materials in the English language that you are willing to share? We are particularly interested in sentence tests from native British English speakers, but any other accent will also be appreciated. A test based on an open response set fits our purpose perfectly, but we also welcome a test with a closed response set. We will be using the materials in students' research projects that we suddenly need to change, due to the current COVID19 pandemic. I am aware of the GRID corpus (Cooke et al. JASA 2006), but it does not fully fulfill our necessities, unfortunately. 2) Do you happen to have any AV speech materials combined with intelligibility scores? I would like to use these to exploit existing speech intelligibility metrics in the visual domain. Hence, I welcome materials in any language with intelligibility measured under any experimental condition. Your help will be warmly appreciated, Yours, -Gaston. --=20 Gaston Hilkhuysen Speech Hearing and Phonetic Sciences University College London Chandler House 2 Wakefield St. LONDON WC1N 1PF UK --00000000000090fa9705a2124d15 Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr"><span style=3D"font-size:11pt;line-height:107%;font-family= :&quot;Arial&quot;,sans-serif" lang=3D"EN-US"> </span><p class=3D"MsoNormal" style=3D"margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;line-height:= 107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,sans-serif"><span lang=3D= "EN-US">Dear list,<span></span></span></p> <p class=3D"MsoNormal" style=3D"margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;line-height:107%;fo= nt-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,sans-serif"><span lang=3D"EN-US"= ><span>=C2=A0</span></span></p> <p class=3D"MsoNormal" style=3D"margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;line-height:107%;fo= nt-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,sans-serif"><span lang=3D"EN-US"= >The email=E2=80=99s subject says it all: we are looking for audio-video (AV) speech materials f= or measuring speech intelligibility of sentences.
