Abstract
Automatic adjustment of the hearing aid according to the intelligibility for the user in the environment could be beneficial. While most intelligibility metrics require a clean speech reference, i.e. intrusive methods, this is rarely available in real-life. This paper proposes a non-intrusive intelligibility metric in which a reconstruction of the clean speech is used in the established intrusive short-time objective intelligibility (STOI) metric. The reconstruction of the clean speech is based on pitch-features of the desired source using a spatio-temporal harmonic model. This model takes advantage of both the spatial and spectral separation of the desired source and interferers to reconstruct the clean signal. The simulations show a high correlation between the proposed pitch-based STOI (PB-STOI) and the original intrusive STOI and hence is promising for online processing of intelligibility.
