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

Assessment of effects of hearing aid fitting on the perceptual characteristics of tinnitus
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]
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?
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 ...

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