Flexible neural encoding predicts the comprehension of degraded speech

The paper investigates how neural encoding of speech varies with acoustic degradation and language, finding that flexible encoding strategies predict comprehension of degraded speech.

Robust Decoding of Speech Acoustics from EEG: Going Beyond the Amplitude Envelope

The paper decodes speech acoustics from EEG using extended features beyond amplitude envelopes, showing linear models perform comparably to non-linear ones and some features correlate with speech intelligibility.

Neural decoding of the speech envelope: Effects of intelligibility and spectral degradation

This study decodes speech envelope neural activity using EEG in hearing listeners, finding that intelligible speech improves decoding accuracy despite no effect of spectral resolution.
