This paper aims to present an improved bicoherence spectrum (IBS) combined with cyclic modulation spectrum (CMS) and cross-correlation that is suitable for classification of hydrophone signals involving deep learning (DL). First, the proposed feature...
BACKGROUND: Acoustic snoring sound analysis is a noninvasive method for diagnosis of the mechanical mechanisms causing snoring that can be performed during natural sleep. The objective of this work is development and evaluation of classification sche...
This study investigated a method to adjust hearing-aid gain by use of a machine-learning algorithm that estimates the optimal setting of gain parameters based on user preference indicated in an iterative paired-comparison procedure. Twenty hearing-im...

Recently, deep learning based speech segregation has been shown to improve human speech intelligibility in noisy environments. However, one important factor not yet considered is room reverberation, which characterizes typical daily environments. The...
Despite great advances in hearing-aid technology, users still experience problems with noise in windy environments. The potential benefits of using a deep recurrent neural network (RNN) for reducing wind noise were assessed. The RNN was trained using...
OBJECTIVE: We investigate the clinical effectiveness of a novel deep learning-based noise reduction (NR) approach under noisy conditions with challenging noise types at low signal to noise ratio (SNR) levels for Mandarin-speaking cochlear implant (CI...
