OBJECTIVES: This study aims to develop deep learning (DL) models for the quantitative prediction of hearing thresholds based on stimulus-frequency otoacoustic emissions (SFOAEs) evoked by swept tones.
Diagnostic tests for hearing impairment not only determines the presence (or absence) of hearing loss, but also evaluates its degree and type, and provides physicians with essential data for future treatment and rehabilitation. Therefore, accurately ...
OBJECTIVE: To assess the accuracy and reliability of a machine learning (ML) algorithm for predicting the full audiograms of hearing-impaired children relative to the common approach (CA).
To assess whether CI programming by means of a software application using artificial intelligence (AI), FOX®, may improve cochlear implant (CI) performance. Two adult CI recipients who had mixed auditory results with their manual fitting were selec...
We propose a machine learning (ML)-based model for predicting cochlear dead regions (DRs) in patients with hearing loss of various etiologies. Five hundred and fifty-five ears from 380 patients (3,770 test samples) diagnosed with sensorineural hearin...
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to use machine learning in the form of a deep neural network to objectively classify paired auditory brainstem response waveforms into either: 'clear response', 'inconclusive' or 'response absent'.
Most simulations of cochlear implant (CI) coding strategies rely on standard vocoders that are based on purely signal processing techniques. However, these models neither account for various biophysical phenomena, such as neural stochasticity and ref...

PURPOSE: Prediction of hearing loss in noisy workplaces is considered to be an important aspect of hearing conservation program. Artificial intelligence, as a new approach, can be used to predict the complex phenomenon such as hearing loss. Using art...
Wide dynamic range compression (WDRC) and noise reduction both play important roles in hearing aids. WDRC provides level-dependent amplification so that the level of sound produced by the hearing aid falls between the hearing threshold and the highes...
To date, pure-tone audiometry remains the gold standard for clinical auditory testing. However, pure-tone audiometry is time-consuming and only provides a discrete estimate of hearing acuity. Here, we aim to address these two main drawbacks by develo...
