Monitoring Practitioner's Skills in Pure-Tone Audiometry
International Journal of E-Health and Medical Communications, 2019 So far, there exists no standard, to evaluate a practitioner's skills in pure-tone audiometry. To narrow the gap, this article presents an artificial patient (AP) emulating various types of hearing impairment. In contrast to other solutions, the AP autonomously listens to real pure-tones in soft real-time, while taking into account elements from psycho-
