Linking Data-Driven Audiometric Phenotypes to Speech Perception in Quiet and Noise

Data-driven clustering of 70,557 audiograms reveals distinct audiometric configurations that better reflect variability in speech perception, especially in noise, than pure-tone averages, advancing precision audiology and individualized rehabilitation strategies.

Does the efficacy of channel selection in cochlear implant processing strategies depend on the background noise? – An investigation with typical hearing individuals and vocoding

The effect of masker type and cochlear implant speech processing strategy on speech intelligibility is investigated with typical-hearing listeners using vocoding as a simulation of cochlear implant processing.

Enhance, Remix, Compress: Comodulation Effects of Dynamic Range Compression in Speech Enhancement pipelines

Does applying dynamic range compression separately to speech and noise improve intelligibility compared to joint compression, when using separated sources in non-stationary noise?
