Gesture recognition for hearing impaired people using an ensemble of deep learning models with improving beluga whale optimization-based hyperparameter tuning.

Scientific reports
Sign language (SL) is the linguistics of speech and hearing-impaired individuals. The hand gesture is the primary model employed in SL by speech and hearing-challenged people to talk with themselves and ordinary persons. At present, hand gesture dete...

Development and Validation of a Novel Prediction Model for Hearing Loss From Cisplatin Chemotherapy.

Journal of clinical oncology : official journal of the American Society of Clinical Oncology
PURPOSE: Cisplatin treats many common tumors but causes permanent and debilitating hearing loss (HL). The objective of this study was to develop and externally validate a predictive model of HL in cisplatin-treated children and adolescent cancer surv...

Heavy metal biomarkers and their impact on hearing loss risk: a machine learning framework analysis.

Frontiers in public health
BACKGROUND: Exposure to heavy metals has been implicated in adverse auditory health outcomes, yet the precise relationships between heavy metal biomarkers and hearing status remain underexplored. This study leverages a machine learning framework to i...

Automatic development of speech-in-noise hearing tests using machine learning.

Scientific reports
Understanding speech in noisy environments is a primary challenge for individuals with hearing loss, affecting daily communication and quality of life. Traditional speech-in-noise tests are essential for screening and diagnosing hearing loss but are ...

Structural brain pattern abnormalities in tinnitus with and without hearing loss.

Hearing research
OBJECTIVE: Subjective tinnitus often coexists with hearing loss, and they share common pathophysiological mechanisms. This comorbidity induces whole-brain gray matter volume (GMV) alterations, manifesting as distributed structural changes in neural n...

Machine learning analysis of cardiovascular risk factors and their associations with hearing loss.

Scientific reports
Hearing loss poses immense burden worldwide and early detection is crucial. The accurate models identify high-risk groups, enabling timely intervention to improve quality of life. The subtle changes in hearing often go unnoticed, presenting a challen...

Feature-Based Audiogram Value Estimator (FAVE): Estimating Numerical Thresholds from Scanned Images of Handwritten Audiograms.

Journal of medical systems
Hearing loss is a public health concern that affects millions of people globally. Clinically, a person's hearing sensitivity is often measured using pure-tone audiometry and visualized as a pure-tone audiogram, a plot of hearing sensitivity as a func...

IoT-driven smart assistive communication system for the hearing impaired with hybrid deep learning models for sign language recognition.

Scientific reports
Deaf and hard-of-hearing people utilize sign language recognition (SLR) to interconnect. Sign language (SL) is vital for hard-of-hearing and deaf individuals to communicate. SL uses varied hand gestures to speak words, sentences, or letters. It aids ...

Use of Hearing Aids Embedded with Inertial Sensors and Artificial Intelligence to Identify Patients at Risk for Falling.

Otology & neurotology : official publication of the American Otological Society, American Neurotology Society [and] European Academy of Otology and Neurotology
OBJECTIVE: To compare fall risk scores of hearing aids embedded with inertial measurement units (IMU-HAs) and powered by artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms with scores by trained observers.

Hybrid statistical and machine-learning approach to hearing-loss identification based on an oversampling technique.

Computers in biology and medicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Hearing loss is a crucial global health hazard exerting considerable social and physiological effects on spoken language and cognition. Patients affected by this condition may experience social and professional hardships th...
