Towards Investigating Residual Hearing Loss: Quantification of Fibrosis in a Novel Cochlear OCT Dataset.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Cochlear implants (CIs) are bionic prostheses that restores hearing via electrical stimulation of the auditory nerve. Hybrid CIs, which use electroacoustic stimulation (EAS), combine residual low-frequency acoustic hearing with CI electric...

Speech intelligibility prediction based on a physiological model of the human ear and a hierarchical spiking neural network.

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America
A speech intelligibility (SI) prediction model is proposed that includes an auditory preprocessing component based on the physiological anatomy and activity of the human ear, a hierarchical spiking neural network, and a decision back-end processing b...
