Participants were asked to recognize auditory sentences presented alone in noise, aligned with the newly trained synthetic textured mapped target face, or the original natural face. There was a significant advantage when the noisy auditory sentence was paired with either head, with the synthetic textured mapped target face giving as much of an improvement as the original recordings of the natural face.
