Machine Learning Feasibility in Cochlear Implant Speech Perception Outcomes-Moving Beyond Single Biomarkers for Cochlear Implant Performance Prediction.

Ear and hearing
OBJECTIVES: Machine learning (ML) is an emerging discipline centered around complex pattern matching and large data-based prediction modeling and can improve precision medicine healthcare. Cochlear implants (CI) are highly effective, however, outcome...

Machine-Learning Predictions of Cochlear Implant Functional Outcomes: A Systematic Review.

Ear and hearing
OBJECTIVES: Cochlear implant (CI) user functional outcomes are challenging to predict because of the variability in individual anatomy, neural health, CI device characteristics, and linguistic and listening experience. Machine learning (ML) technique...

Mental Models of Smart Implant Technology: A Topic Modeling Approach to the Role of Initial Information and Labeling.

Health communication
Public understanding of medical innovations such as smart technology is decisive for its acceptance and implementation. Thus, it is important to understand what visions people develop of a technology based on initial information such as the label. We...

Quantitative in-vitro assessment of a novel robot-assisted system for cochlear implant electrode insertion.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: As an increasing number of cochlear implant candidates exhibit residual inner ear function, hearing preservation strategies during implant insertion are gaining importance. Manual implantation is known to induce traumatic force and pressure ...

Cochlear Implant Artifacts Removal in EEG-Based Objective Auditory Rehabilitation Assessment.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Cochlear implant (CI) is a neural prosthesis that can restore hearing for patients with severe to profound hearing loss. Observed variability in auditory rehabilitation outcomes following cochlear implantation may be due to cerebral reorganization. E...

Artificial Intelligence in Otology and Neurotology.

Otolaryngologic clinics of North America
Clinical applications of artificial intelligence (AI) have grown exponentially with increasing computational power and Big Data. Data rich fields such as Otology and Neurotology are still in the infancy of harnessing the power of AI but are increasin...

Deep learning restores speech intelligibility in multi-talker interference for cochlear implant users.

Scientific reports
Cochlear implants (CIs) do not offer the same level of effectiveness in noisy environments as in quiet settings. Current single-microphone noise reduction algorithms in hearing aids and CIs only remove predictable, stationary noise, and are ineffecti...

Prediction of Cochlear Implant Fitting by Machine Learning Techniques.

Otology & neurotology : official publication of the American Otological Society, American Neurotology Society [and] European Academy of Otology and Neurotology
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the differences in electrically evoked compound action potential (ECAP) thresholds and postoperative mapping current (T) levels between electrode types after cochlear implantation, the correlation between ECAP ...

Developer perspectives on the ethics of AI-driven neural implants: a qualitative study.

Scientific reports
Convergence of neural implants with artificial intelligence (AI) presents opportunities for the development of novel neural implants and improvement of existing neurotechnologies. While such technological innovation carries great promise for the rest...

Optical Microphone-Based Speech Reconstruction System With Deep Learning for Individuals With Hearing Loss.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Although many speech enhancement (SE) algorithms have been proposed to promote speech perception in hearing-impaired patients, the conventional SE approaches that perform well under quiet and/or stationary noises fail under nonstationary n...
