Automating Speech Audiometry in Quiet and in Noise Using a Deep Neural Network

Biology
In addition to pure-tone audiometry tests and electrophysiological tests, a comprehensive hearing evaluation includes assessing a subject’s ability to understand speech in quiet and in noise. In fact, speech audiometry tests are commonly used in clinical

Can older people remember medication reminders presented using synthetic speech? [PDF]

, 2014
Reminders are often part of interventions to help older people adhere to complicated medication regimes. Computer-generated (synthetic) speech is ideal for tailoring reminders to different medication regimes.

Speech recognition in noise with active and passive hearing protectors: a comparative study [PDF]

, 2011
The perceived negative influence of standard hearing protectors on communication is a common argument for not wearing them. Thus, augmented protectors have been developed to improve speech intelligibility.

Comparison of Perioperative Electrophysiological Measurements and Postoperative Results in Cochlear Implantation with a Slim Straight Electrode

Applied Sciences, 2023
This research aims to determine whether a neural response telemetry (NRT) threshold determines the success of surgery. Furthermore, we examined whether the patient’s age, the etiology of their hearing loss, the depth of the electrode insertion, and a ...

Hearing with a cochlear implant: from bionic to bimodal listening [PDF]

, 2014
Introduction: Currently, cochlear implantation (CI) is the standard procedure for bilateral severe hearing loss in both children and adults. However, a considerable number of hearing-impaired patients, who are candidates for CI, have residual hearing in ...

Auditory and cognitive performance in elderly musicians and nonmusicians [PDF]

, 2017
Musicians represent a model for examining brain and behavioral plasticity in terms of cognitive and auditory profile, but few studies have investigated whether elderly musicians have better auditory and cognitive abilities than nonmusicians.

Associations of audiometric hearing and speech-in-noise performance with cognitive decline among older adults: The Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging (BLSA)

Frontiers in Neurology, 2022
BackgroundEstablished associations between hearing loss and cognitive decline were primarily defined by pure-tone audiometry, which reflects peripheral hearing ability.
