Auditory training strategies for adult users of cochlear implants [PDF]

, 2013
There has been growing interest recently in whether computer-based training can improve speech perception among users of cochlear implants (Fu et al., 2005; Oba et al., 2011; Ingvalson et al., 2013). This paper reports a series of experiments which first

4D Bioprinted Self‐Folding Scaffolds Enhance Cartilage Formation in the Engineering of Trachea

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
A bilayer self‐folding scaffold, triggerable by humidity, is fabricated via 4D bioprinting for trachea engineering. An analytical model is derived to predict its radius of curvature, enabling its scalability. Cartilage progenitor cells seeded on the scaffold perceive scaffold final curvature and react to it, by enhancing the upregulation of pro ...

Effects of noise suppression and envelope dynamic range compression on the intelligibility of vocoded sentences for a tonal language [PDF]

, 2017
Vocoder simulation studies have suggested that the carrier signal type employed affects the intelligibility of vocoded speech. The present work further assessed how carrier signal type interacts with additional signal processing, namely, single-channel ...

Electrode contact estimation based on preoperative versus postoperative imaging as a basis for anatomy-based fitting

Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering
Anatomy-based fitting (ABF) has the potential to lead to better outcomes than conventional clinically-based fitting (CBF). It has already been shown that anatomy-based fitting based on postoperative imaging (postopABF) can improve speech understanding ...

Audiovisual segregation in cochlear implant users. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
It has traditionally been assumed that cochlear implant users de facto perform atypically in audiovisual tasks. However, a recent study that combined an auditory task with visual distractors suggests that only those cochlear implant users that are not ...
