Modeling the Effects of Sensorineural Hearing Loss on Sound Localization in the Median Plane [0.03%]
听觉神经性听力损失对中平面声音定位影响的建模研究

Listeners use monaural spectral cues to localize sound sources in sagittal planes (along the up-down and front-back directions). How sensorineural hearing loss affects the salience of monaural spectral cues is unclear. To simulate the effec...

For bilateral cochlear implant (CI) patients, electrodes that receive the same frequency allocation often stimulate locations in the left and right ear that do not yield the same perceived pitch, resulting in a pitch mismatch. This pitch mi...
A Detection-Theoretic Analysis of Auditory Streaming and Its Relation to Auditory Masking [0.03%]
听觉感知流的检测理论分析及其与掩蔽的关系

Research on hearing has long been challenged with understanding our exceptional ability to hear out individual sounds in a mixture (the so-called cocktail party problem). Two general approaches to the problem have been taken using sequences...
Forward-Masked Frequency Selectivity Improvements in Simulated and Actual Cochlear Implant Users Using a Preprocessing Algorithm [0.03%]
基于预处理算法的模拟和真实人工耳蜗用户的前掩蔽频率选择性改善

Florian Langner
Frequency selectivity can be quantified using masking paradigms, such as psychophysical tuning curves (PTCs). Normal-hearing (NH) listeners show sharp PTCs that are level- and frequency-dependent, whereas frequency selectivity is strongly r...

It has been argued that a main limitation of the cochlear implant is the spread of current induced by each electrode, which activates an inappropriately large range of sensory neurons. To reduce this spread, an alternative stimulation mode,...

Cochlear synaptopathy (or hidden hearing loss), due to noise exposure or aging, has been demonstrated in animal models using histological techniques. However, diagnosis of the condition in individual humans is problematic because of (a) tes...
Sentence Recognition Prediction for Hearing-impaired Listeners in Stationary and Fluctuation Noise With FADE: Empowering the Attenuation and Distortion Concept by Plomp With a Quantitative Processing Model [0.03%]
佩洛普衰减和失真概念的定量处理模型在噪声中对听障者的语句识别预测作用:适用于固定噪音和波动噪音
Birger Kollmeier,Marc René Schädler,Anna Warzybok et al.
Birger Kollmeier et al.
To characterize the individual patient's hearing impairment as obtained with the matrix sentence recognition test, a simulation Framework for Auditory Discrimination Experiments (FADE) is extended here using the Attenuation and Distortion (...
Investigating Differences in Preferred Noise Reduction Strength Among Hearing Aid Users [0.03%]
探究助听器佩戴者之间噪声减少程度的偏好差异
Tobias Neher,Kirsten C Wagener
Tobias Neher
Even though hearing aid (HA) users can respond very differently to noise reduction (NR) processing, knowledge about possible drivers of this variability (and thus ways of addressing it in HA fittings) is sparse. The current study investigat...
Complex-Tone Pitch Discrimination in Listeners With Sensorineural Hearing Loss [0.03%]
感音神经性听力损失患者的复调音高辨别能力研究
Federica Bianchi,Michal Fereczkowski,Johannes Zaar et al.
Federica Bianchi et al.
Physiological studies have shown that noise-induced sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) enhances the amplitude of envelope coding in auditory-nerve fibers. As pitch coding of unresolved complex tones is assumed to rely on temporal envelope co...
The Influence of Cochlear Mechanical Dysfunction, Temporal Processing Deficits, and Age on the Intelligibility of Audible Speech in Noise for Hearing-Impaired Listeners [0.03%]
耳聋患者 cochlear 机械功能障碍、时间处理缺陷和年龄对噪声中可懂言语可懂度的影响
Peter T Johannesen,Patricia Pérez-González,Sridhar Kalluri et al.
Peter T Johannesen et al.
The aim of this study was to assess the relative importance of cochlear mechanical dysfunction, temporal processing deficits, and age on the ability of hearing-impaired listeners to understand speech in noisy backgrounds. Sixty-eight listen...
