Robust single- and multi-loudspeaker least-squares-based equalization for hearing devices

no code implementations9 Sep 2021 Henning Schepker, Florian Denk, Birger Kollmeier, Simon Doclo

To improve the sound quality of hearing devices, equalization filters can be used that aim at achieving acoustic transparency, i. e., listening with the device in the ear is perceptually similar to the open ear.

Individualized sound pressure equalization in hearing devices exploiting an electro-acoustic model

no code implementations4 Oct 2021 Henning Schepker, Reinhild Rohden, Florian Denk, Birger Kollmeier, Matthias Blau, Simon Doclo

To achieve optimal individualized equalization typically requires knowledge of all transfer functions between the source, the hearing device, and the individual eardrum.

Prediction of speech intelligibility with DNN-based performance measures

no code implementations17 Mar 2022 Angel Mario Castro Martinez, Constantin Spille, Jana Roßbach, Birger Kollmeier, Bernd T. Meyer

This paper presents a speech intelligibility model based on automatic speech recognition (ASR), combining phoneme probabilities from deep neural networks (DNN) and a performance measure that estimates the word error rate from these probabilities.

Lombard Effect for Bilingual Speakers in Cantonese and English: importance of spectro-temporal features

no code implementations14 Apr 2022 Maximilian Karl Scharf, Sabine Hochmuth, Lena L. N. Wong, Birger Kollmeier, Anna Warzybok

While Cantonese is a tonal language that encodes information in spectro-temporal features, the Lombard effect is known to be associated with spectral changes in the speech signal.

Assessing Rate limits Using Behavioral and Neural Responses of Interaural-Time-Difference Cues in Fine-Structure and Envelope

no code implementations5 May 2023 Hongmei Hu, Stephan Ewert, Birger Kollmeier, Deborah Vickers

To eliminate the impact of CI stimulation artifacts and to develop protocols for the ongoing bilateral CI studies, upper-frequency limits for both behavior and EEG responses were obtained from normal hearing (NH) listeners using sinusoidal-amplitude-modulated (SAM) tones and filtered clicks with changes in either fine structure ITD or envelope ITD.
