Word learning in deaf children with cochlear implants: effects of early auditory experience.

open access: yesDevelopmental Science, 2012
Word-learning skills were tested in normal-hearing 12- to 40-month-olds and in deaf 22- to 40-month-olds 12 to 18 months after cochlear implantation. Using the Intermodal Preferential Looking Paradigm (IPLP), children were tested for their ability to ...

A perspective from the Mesozoic: Evolutionary changes of the mammalian skull and their influence on feeding efficiency and high‐frequency hearing

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

Comparison of word-, sentence, and phoneme-based training strategies in improving the perception of spectrally-distorted speech [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Purpose: To compare the effectiveness of three self-administered strategies for auditory training that might improve speech perception by adult users of cochlear implants. The strategies are based, respectively, on discriminating isolated words, words in

Neural electrodes for brain‐computer interface system: From rigid to soft

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Here, we review the development trends of neural electrodes in BCI. This paper highlights the critical role of electrodes in BCI systems, analyzes the limitations of rigid electrodes, and introduces various flexible electrodes. Furthermore, we discuss application scenarios and prospects of BCI electrode technology, aiming to provide valuable references

Robust Cochlear Modiolar Axis Detection in CT [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
The cochlea, the auditory part of the inner ear, is a spiral-shaped organ with large morphological variability. An individualized assessment of its shape is essential for clinical applications related to tonotopy and cochlear implantation. To unambiguously reference morphological parameters, reliable recognition of the cochlear modiolar axis in ...
