Eric W. Healy

Eric W. Healy's research focuses on how people understand speech in difficult listening conditions, such as background noise, and how deep-learning algorithms can be designed to make speech clearer for listeners with hearing loss. His work spans speech intelligibility, noise reduction, environmental sound recognition, and speech affected by conditions like dysarthria (a motor speech disorder). Much of the recent work combines behavioral listening experiments with computational/deep-learning models for speech enhancement.

Output was higher around 2017-2018 (8-9 papers/year) but has settled into a steadier, lower rate of roughly 2-4 publications per year over the past five years.
