Cochlear implants (CIs) are the world's most successful sensory prosthesis and have been
the subject of intense research and development in recent decades. We critically review the …

Cochlear implant technology successfully restores hearing function to patients with sensory
impairment. Although cochlear implant users generally hear well in quiet, they still find noisy …

Attempts to develop speech enhancement algorithms with improved speech intelligibility for
cochlear implant (CI) users have met with limited success. To improve speech enhancement …

Although cochlear implants work well for people with hearing impairment in quiet conditions,
it is well-known that they are not as effective in noisy environments. Noise reduction …

Combined electric and acoustic stimulation (EAS) has demonstrated better speech
recognition than conventional cochlear implant (CI) and yielded satisfactory performance …

The cochlea plays a key role in the transmission from acoustic vibration to neural stimulation
upon which the brain perceives the sound. A cochlear implant (CI) is an auditory prosthesis …

Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have shown their superiority for speech
enhancement. Nevertheless, most previous attempts had convolutional layers as the …

Loss of the larynx significantly alters natural voice production, requiring alternative
communication modalities and rehabilitation methods to restore speech intelligibility and …

Cochlear implant (CI) users struggle to understand speech in noisy conditions. To address
this problem, we propose a deep learning speech denoising sound coding strategy that …

Three cochlear implant (CI) sound coding strategies were combined in the same signal
processing path and compared for speech intelligibility with vocoded Mandarin sentences …
