As the most successful neural prosthesis, cochlear implants have provided partial hearing to
more than 120000 persons worldwide; half of which being pediatric users who are able to …

Animals often use acoustic signals to communicate in groups or social aggregations in
which multiple individuals signal within a receiver's hearing range. Consequently, receivers …

Abstract Objectives/Hypothesis: This study documents the importance of preserving residual
low‐frequency acoustic hearing as those with more residual hearing are selected for …

Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of selected predictive
factors, primarily age at fitting of amplification and degree of hearing loss, on auditory-based …

The purpose of this study was to explore the potential advantages, both theoretical and
applied, of preserving low-frequency acoustic hearing in cochlear implant patients. Several …

Speech recognition in noise and music perception is especially challenging for current
cochlear implant users. The present study utilizes the residual acoustic hearing in the …

Objective: The abilities to localize sounds and segregate speech from interfering sounds in a
complex auditory environment were studied in a group of adults who use bilateral cochlear …

Some of the most common interfering background sounds a listener experiences are the
sounds of other talkers. In Experiment 1, recognition for natural Institute of Electrical and …

Objective: The purposes of this study were to (a) examine the accuracy of cochlear implant
recipients who use different types of devices and signal processing strategies on pitch …

Pitch is important for speech and music perception, and may also play a crucial role in our
ability to segregate sounds that arrive from different sources. This article reviews some basic …
