This article describes issues concerning music perception with cochlear implants, discusses
why music perception is usually poor in cochlear implant users, reviews relevant data, and …

The principles of the most recent cochlear implant processors are similar to that of the
channel vocoder, originally used for transmitting speech over telephone lines with much less …

The aims of this paper are to (i) provide a brief history of cochlear implants;(ii) present a
status report on the current state of implant engineering and the levels of speech …

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 …

Cochlear implantation is a life-changing intervention for people with a severe hearing
impairment [1]. For most cochlear implant (CI) users, speech intelligibility is satisfactory in …

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in music perception of cochlear implant
(CI) recipients and a growing body of research conducted in this area. The majority of these …

Objectives: Current cochlear implant (CI) devices are limited in providing voice pitch
information that is critical for listeners' recognition of prosodic contrasts of speech (eg …

Fundamental frequency (F0) processing by cochlear implant (CI) listeners was measured
using a psychophysical task and a speech intonation recognition task. Listeners' Weber …

Objectives: When listening to two competing speakers, normal-hearing (NH) listeners can
take advantage of voice differences between the speakers. Users of cochlear implants (CIs) …

Tone languages differ from English in that the pitch pattern of a single-syllable word conveys
lexical meaning. In the present study, dependence of tonal-speech perception on features of …
