Modeling Two‐Channel Speech Processing With the EPIC Cognitive Architecture

Abstract

An important application of cognitive architectures is to provide human performance models that capture psychological mechanisms in a form that can be “programmed” to predict task performance of human–machine system designs. Although many aspects of human performance have been successfully modeled in this approach, accounting for multitalker speech task performance is a novel problem. This article presents a model for performance in a two‐talker task that incorporates concepts from psychoacoustics, in particular, masking effects and stream formation.
