A speech-in-noise test which uses digit triplets in steady-state speech noise was developed.
The test measures primarily the auditory, or bottom-up, speech recognition abilities in noise …

The aim of this clinical study was to assess speech recognition in noise after cochlear
implantation in subjects with single-sided deafness and incapacitating tinnitus. 20 subjects …

Speech understanding in noisy environments is still one of the major challenges for cochlear
implant (CI) users in everyday life. We evaluated a speech enhancement algorithm based …

means of setting up experiments without any programming. The supported output devices …

As people grow older, speech perception difficulties become highly prevalent, especially in
noisy listening situations. Moreover, it is assumed that speech intelligibility is more affected …

Objective To investigate the effect of frequency-to-place mismatch, ie the mismatch between
the tonotopic frequency map in the cochlea and the frequency band that is assigned to an …

Objective: To compare results on the everyday sentence test 'FIST', the new closed-set
