Several binaural audio signal enhancement algorithms were evaluated with respect to their
potential to improve speech intelligibility in noise for users of bilateral cochlear implants …

Bilateral cochlear implant (BCI) users only have very limited spatial hearing abilities. Speech
coding strategies transmit interaural level differences (ILDs) but in a distorted manner …

Abstract open Master Hearing Aid (openMHA) was developed and provided to the hearing
aid research community as an open-source software platform with the aim to support …

Difficulties in selectively attending to one among several speakers have mainly been
associated with the distraction caused by ignored speech. Thus, in the current study, we …

While many algorithms deal with direction of arrival (DOA) estimation and voice activity
detection (VAD) as two separate tasks, only a small number of data-driven methods have …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of a visually guided hearing aid
(VGHA) under conditions designed to capture some aspects of “real-world” communication …

To handle the advances in hearing aid algorithms, the need for high-level programmable but
low-power hardware architectures arises. Therefore, this paper presents the Smart Hearing …

Objectives: Cochlear implant (CI) users continue to struggle understanding speech in noisy
environments with current clinical devices. We have previously shown that this outcome can …

In several applications of machine listening, predicting how well an automatic speech
recognition system will perform before the actual decoding enables the system to adapt to …

Spatial filtering and decomposition of sounds into acoustic source objects is increasingly
investigated for speech enhancement in hearing aids. However, with increasing …
