An artificial patient for pure-tone audiometry [PDF]
EURASIP Journal on Audio, Speech, and Music Processing, 2018 The successful treatment of hearing loss depends on the individual practitioner’s experience and skill. So far, there is no standard available to evaluate the practitioner’s testing skills. To assess every practitioner equally, the paper proposes a first

Bayesian Pure-Tone Audiometry Through Active Learning Under Informed Priors [PDF]
Frontiers in Digital Health, 2021 Pure-tone audiometry—the process of estimating a person's hearing threshold from “audible” and “inaudible” responses to tones of varying frequency and intensity—is the basis for diagnosing and quantifying hearing loss.

THE INDICATION OF HEARING AID BY PURE TONE AUDIOMETRY
Nippon Jibiinkoka Gakkai Kaiho, 1958 From the relation between the effectiveness of a hearing aid and the threshold curve of air conduction the following results were obtained: 1) In cases of conductive or mixed deafness it was difficult to decide the efficiency of a hearing aid by considering only the threshold curve of air conduction.

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-

Comparison between auditory steady-state responses and pure-tone audiometry [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2010 Background/Aim. A more recent method, the auditory steadystate response (ASSR), has become more and more important test method due to difference that was found in previous investigations between hearing thresholds determined by the ASSR and the pure-tone
