Intelligibility of Sung Lyrics: A Pilot Study

This paper is about estimating the intelligibility of the singing voice in a given song. We propose a set of acoustic features that are relevant for estimating the intelligibility. We also propose an approach for labeling songs with an intelligibility score accroding to human perception
