Extending the audiogram with loudness growth: The complementarity of electric and acoustic hearing in bimodal patients.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
IntroductionClinically, recording hearing detection thresholds and representing them in an audiogram is the most common way of evaluating hearing loss and starting the fitting of hearing devices.

Spectral and binaural loudness summation of equally loud narrowband signals in single-sided-deafness and bilateral cochlear implant users

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Recent studies on loudness perception of binaural broadband signals in hearing impaired listeners found large individual differences, suggesting the use of such signals in hearing aid fitting.

Loudness and loudness discrimination [PDF]

open access: yesPerception & Psychophysics, 1980
A model is developed which holds that pure-tone intensity discrimination and suprathreshold loudness judgments are based on the same sensory representation. In this model, loudness is a power function of sound intensity. When two tones are presented sequentially, each gives rise to a loudness value along the sensory continuum.

Real-time loudness normalisation with combined cochlear implant and hearing aid stimulation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
People who use a cochlear implant together with a contralateral hearing aid-so-called bimodal listeners-have poor localisation abilities and sounds are often not balanced in loudness across ears.

Zwicker’s Loudness model as a robust calculation method for assessment of adequacy of airborne sound insulation descriptors for partition walls in dwelling houses

open access: yesActa Acustica, 2023
The development and validation of single number quantities that are meant to serve for straightforward assessment and comparison of airborne sound insulation properties of partition walls are typically challenged by the necessity to perform large numbers

Diagnosis of Pneumonia by Cough Sounds Analyzed with Statistical Features and AI

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Pneumonia is a serious disease often accompanied by complications, sometimes leading to death. Unfortunately, diagnosis of pneumonia is frequently delayed until physical and radiologic examinations are performed.

Continuous Magnitude Production of Loudness

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
Continuous magnitude estimation and continuous cross-modality matching with line length can efficiently track the momentary loudness of time-varying sounds in behavioural experiments.

Prediction of Voice Fundamental Frequency and Intensity from Surface Electromyographic Signals of the Face and Neck

open access: yesVibration, 2022
Silent speech interfaces (SSIs) enable speech recognition and synthesis in the absence of an acoustic signal. Yet, the archetypal SSI fails to convey the expressive attributes of prosody such as pitch and loudness, leading to lexical ambiguities. The aim

Estimated cochlear neural degeneration is associated with loudness hypersensitivity in individuals with normal audiograms [PDF]

open access: yesJASA Express Letters, 2022
In animal models, cochlear neural degeneration (CND) is associated with excess central gain and hyperacusis, but a compelling link between reduced cochlear neural inputs and heightened loudness perception in humans remains elusive.

Voice quality in affect cueing: does loudness matter?

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2013
In emotional speech research, it has been suggested that loudness, along with other prosodic features, may be an important cue in communicating high activation affects.
