Perturbations in Delayed Auditory Feedback (DAF) and speech rate were examined as sources of disruptions in speech between men and women. Fluent adult men (n = 16) and women (n = 16) spoke at a normal and an imposed fast rate of speech with 0, 25, 50, 100, and 200msec. DAF. The syllable rate significantly increased when participants were instructed to speak at a fast rate, and the syllable rate decreased with increasing DAF delays. Men's speech rate was significantly faster during the fast…

Auditory feedback is used for adaptive control of timing in speech
TLDR
Although speakers did not actively adapt consonant durations, the adaptation in vowel duration leads to the consonant taking up an overall smaller proportion of the syllable, aligning with previous research that suggests that speakers attend to proportional durations rather than absolute durations.
Auditory Feedback Is Used for Adaptation and Compensation in Speech Timing.
TLDR
Speakers actively monitor proportional durations and update the temporal dynamics of planning units extending beyond a single segment, consistent with previous research that suggests that speakers attend to proportionalurations rather than absolute durations.
Stuttering adults' lack of pre-speech auditory modulation normalizes when speaking with delayed auditory feedback
The relationship between the intensity levels and speech production fluency in the delayed auditory feedback test in normally hearing listeners
Background and Aim: Sometimes people with functional hearing loss are referred to audiology clinics. The delayed auditory feedback (DAF) is a test which assesses functional hearing loss…
Immediate Effects of Altered Auditory Feedback on Associated Motor Behaviors of People Who Stutter
Aims: This investigation explored the immediate effects of an altered auditory feedback device on motor behaviors associated with stuttering in monologue and conversation with and without the device…
The Potential for a Speech Brain–Computer Interface Using Chronic Electrocorticography
TLDR
This review discusses and outlines the current state-of-the-art for speech BCI and explores what aspeech BCI using chronic ECoG might entail and what the challenges for the translation of speech BCIs to clinical populations remain.
What is the role of auditory processing in stuttering? A mini review of previous knowledge
Abstract Objectives Stuttering is one of the most common speech disorders that has a dynamic and multifactorial nature. The evidences suggest that auditory processing deficit may be involved in…
Speech synthesis from ECoG using densely connected 3D convolutional neural networks.
TLDR
This is the first time that high-quality speech has been reconstructed from neural recordings during speech production using deep neural networks, and uses a densely connected convolutional neural network topology which is well-suited to work with the small amount of data available from each participant.
Silent Speech Interfaces for Speech Restoration: A Review
TLDR
A number of challenges remain to be addressed in future research before SSIs can be promoted to real-world applications, and future SSIs will improve the lives of persons with severe speech impairments by restoring their communication capabilities.

Effect of delayed auditory feedback on normal speakers at two speech rates.
TLDR
It appears that speech disruption of normal speakers under DAF is a poor analog of stuttering, which implicate the peripheral feedback system of fluent speakers for the disruptive effects of DAF on normal speech production at long auditory feedback delays.
Individual variability in delayed auditory feedback effects on speech fluency and rate in normally fluent adults.
PURPOSE Delayed auditory feedback (DAF) is known to induce stuttering-like disfluencies (SLDs) and cause speech rate reductions in normally fluent adults, but the reason for speech disruptions is not…
Effects of Delayed Auditory Feedback on Speech Kinematics in Fluent Speakers
TLDR
Repeated-measures analysis indicated a lower percent of correct productions, higher variability, and slower duration of lip movements in the delayed feedback condition compared to the gated feedback and control conditions.
Speaking Speed Effects on Delayed Auditory Feedback Disruption of Speech Fluency
TLDR
It is suggested that, when speaking more quickly, one uses more central mechanisms of movement programming, Attentional control, or attentional control than peripheral mechanisms (tactile, proprioceptive, and acoustic circuits) than peripheral Mechanisms, which may explain the decreased disruptive influence of delayed auditory feedback on speed, fluency, and quality at increased speaking rates.

Voice F0 responses to pitch-shifted voice feedback during English speech.
TLDR
Findings support previous research suggesting the audio vocal system is involved in the control of suprasegmental features of English speech by correcting for errors between voice pitch feedback and the desired F0.
Effects of pitch-shift velocity on voice Fo responses.
TLDR
The results of this study strongly support previous suggestions that the audio-vocal system monitors auditory feedback and, through closed-loop negative feedback, adjusts voice F0 so as to cancel low-level fluctuations in F0.
