Parameter Tuning of Time-Frequency Masking Algorithms for Reverberant Artifact Removal within the Cochlear Implant Stimulus [PDF]
Cochlear implant users struggle to understand speech in reverberant environments. To restore speech perception, artifacts dominated by reverberant reflections can be removed from the cochlear implant stimulus. Artifacts can be identified and removed by applying a matrix of gain values, a technique referred to as time-frequency masking.

Differences in the impedance of cochlear implant devices within 24 hours of their implantation.
Cochlear implantation is a surgical procedure, which is performed on severely hearing-impaired patients. Impedance field telemetry is commonly used to determine the integrity of the cochlear implant device during and after surgery.
