PaperarXiv:2609.12122 / Quantifying Consonant Contributions to Word Intelligibility via Acoustic Masking
Masking-Induced Misrecognition Rate Paper
An academic paper published on arXiv that proposes a method combining acoustic masking with ASR models to quantify the contribution of consonants to word intelligibility. It defines the Masking-induced Misrecognition Rate (MMR) metric and validates it across four languages and three ASR architectures.
