Deep learning-based denoising streamed from mobile phones improves speech-in-noise understanding for hearing aid users [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
The hearing loss of almost half a billion people is commonly treated with hearing aids. However, current hearing aids often do not work well in real-world noisy environments. We present a deep learning based denoising system that runs in real time on iPhone 7 and Samsung Galaxy S10 (25ms algorithmic latency).

Magnitude of the contralateral efferent olivocochlear effect as a function of the frequency

open access: yesJournal of Otology, 2022
Background: The activation of the medial olivocochlear reflex reduces the cochlear gain, which is manifested perceptually as decreased auditory sensitivity.

Dynamic Processing Neural Network Architecture For Hearing Loss Compensation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
This paper proposes neural networks for compensating sensorineural hearing loss. The aim of the hearing loss compensation task is to transform a speech signal to increase speech intelligibility after further processing by a person with a hearing impairment, which is modeled by a hearing loss model.

Psychoacoustically Motivated Audio Declipping Based on Weighted l1 Minimization [PDF]

open access: yes2019 42nd International Conference on Telecommunications and Signal Processing (TSP), 2019
A novel method for audio declipping based on sparsity is presented. The method incorporates psychoacoustic information by weighting the transform coefficients in the $\ell_1$ minimization. Weighting leads to an improved quality of restoration while retaining a low complexity of the algorithm.

Why Hoffmann? His Chemistry**

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Roald Hoffmann was the perfect theoretical chemist to collaborate with R. B. Woodward on the Principle of Conservation of Orbital Symmetry. This essay presents Hoffmann's capabilities as of May 5, 1964. Abstract Abstract: Why was it that Roald Hoffmann was the perfect collaborator for R. B.

Assessment of effects of hearing aid fitting on the perceptual characteristics of tinnitus

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology, 2018
Background Evidence of systematic relationships between the perceptual characteristics of tinnitus, like its pitch or loudness, and those of the absolute hearing threshold curves, like the presence and degree of hearing loss at certain frequencies, would

Hypothesis Testing for Detecting Outlier Evaluators [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
In epidemiological studies, very often, evaluators obtain measurements of disease outcomes for study participants. In this paper, we propose a two-stage procedure for detecting outlier evaluators. In the first stage, a regression model is fitted to obtain the evaluators' effects.

Vestibular and cochlear dysfunction in aging: Two sides of the same coin?

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 308-314, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objective Nonspecific complaints of hearing loss, vertigo, imbalance, and instability, without a defined etiology, are very prevalent in the elderly population, with a great impact on morbidity and mortality in this age group. The objectives of this study were to verify whether there is age‐related vestibular dysfunction and to test the ...

A psychoacoustic application for the adjustment of electrical hearing thresholds in cochlear implant patients.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
ObjectiveFitting cochlear implants, especially the precise determination of electrical hearing thresholds, is a time-consuming and complex task for patients as well as audiologists.

Sound anomalies of Cornell Swift recorders affect ecoacoustic studies, and a workaround solution

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 46, Issue 5, December 2022., 2022
An unexpected anomaly appeared in ARU audio recordings, significantly affecting calculations of ecoacoustic indices of soundscape conditions of central boreal Alaska. An effective solution was to delete the initial 4 sec of each recording and recalculate the indices.
