When hearing losses are too asymmetric, the patients face a situation in which the monaural exploitation of sound messages significantly lessens their performance compared to what it should be in a binaural ...
An essential task for the central auditory pathways is to parse the auditory messages sent by the two cochleae into auditory objects, the segregation and localisation of which constitute an important means ...

These findings suggest that envelope extraction in itself may not lead to a breakdown of the PE benefits, and that other factors may play a role. ...

Successful development of such an algorithm is especially important for hearing-impaired (HI) listeners, given their particular difficulty in noisy backgrounds. ...
Unlike the ideal binary mask, which requires prior knowledge of the premixed signals, the masks used to segregate speech from noise in the current study were estimated by training the algorithm on speech ...

Older listeners with age-related sensorineural hearing loss (presbycusis) often struggle to understand speech in such situations, even when wearing a hearing aid. ...
Yet, it is unclear whether a peripheral hearing loss degrades the attentional modulation of cortical speech tracking. ...
This 85 problem is not always mitigated by amplification of the sounds arriving at the ears, as seen 86 by the fact that many hearing aid users continue to experience substantial difficulties In situations ...
