TIMIT sentences were edited to contain vowels (Vs) (replacing consonants with silence) or consonants (Cs) (replacing vowels with silence) and vowel-consonant (V-C) transitions, then presented to unilaterally or bilaterally fitted CI listeners for recognition. Experimental results showed that segmental interruption had a significant influence on CI speech perception. Vowels contained more perceptual information than consonants, and V-C transitions could significantly improve the intelligibility of V-only or C-only sentences. In addition,...
