Relationship Between Chinese Speech Intelligibility of Elderly and Speech Transmission Index

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2021
In this paper, the relationship between Chinese speech intelligibility (CSI) scores of the elderly aged 60–69 and over 70 years old, and speech transmission index (STI) were investigated through the auralization method under different reverberation time ...

Labyrinthine Abnormalities on MRI in Untreated Otosclerosis: Prevalence and Clinical Relevance

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
In untreated otosclerosis with labyrinthine symptoms, delayed 3D FLAIR MRI rarely demonstrates endolymphatic hydrops but frequently reveals blood–labyrinth barrier (BLB) disruption. BLB enhancement is spatially associated with cochlear endosteal and round window involvement and increases with the severity of the hearing loss phenotype.

Low Cost Omnidirectional Sound Source Utilizing a Common Directional Loudspeaker for Impulse Response Measurements

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
Alternative low-cost sources (e.g., balloons, gun fires) are used for impulse response measurements when a dodecahedron speaker is not available. This study sets to explore the applicability of a method utilizing a common directional loudspeaker as a ...

The Plausibility of a String Quartet Performance in Virtual Reality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We describe an experiment that explores the contribution of auditory and other features to the illusion of plausibility in a virtual environment that depicts the performance of a string quartet. ‘Plausibility’ refers to the component of presence that is

Congenital aural atresia [PDF]

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, 1989
AbstractThis report is based on 25 years' experience in the surgical management of 69 ears with congenital aural atresia. There were 7 ears with meatal atresia, 11 with partial atresia, 50 with total atresia, and 1 with hypopneumatic total atresia. Meatoplasty was performed in 7 ears, canaloplasty was performed in 22 ears, canaloplasties with struts in

Cochlear Implantation in Autoimmune Inner‐Ear Disease: Outcome and Patient‐Reported Benefit

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that patients with secondary autoimmune inner‐ear disease (AIED) achieve significant improvements in speech perception and quality of life following cochlear implantation. Although AIED patients may show slightly lower performance in noisy environments compared to controls, their subjective hearing benefit converges with matched

Comparative Study of Tympanic Membrane Regeneration Therapy for Chronic Otitis Media

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study compared tympanic membrane regeneration therapy (TMRT) with conventional tympanoplasty (CTP) for the treatment of chronic suppurative perforated otitis media (COM). TMRT has many advantages over CTP as a surgical treatment for COM. In particular, significant differences were observed in operative time, hearing improvement, and patient ...

Drone auralization model with statistical synthesis of amplitude and frequency modulations

open access: yesActa Acustica
This paper presents a drone auralization model that reproduces the spectro-temporal and spatial characteristics of a drone during flight. Focusing on perceptual plausibility, the time-variant processes are modeled by taking into account the statistical ...

On the spatial resolution of virtual acoustic environments for head movements in horizontal, vertical, and lateral direction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Dynamic binaural synthesis based on binaural room impulse responses (BRIRs) for a discrete grid of head orientations can provide an auralization naturally responding to head movements in all rotational degrees of freedom.
