Wind noise interference can adversely affect the performance of behind-the-ear hearing
aids, particularly when used outdoors. In this study, we developed a novel strategy to …

Hearing aids are small electronic devices designed to improve hearing for persons with
impaired hearing, using sophisticated audio signal processing algorithms and technologies …

By Lidia Lee, PhD Advanced research in hearing aid algorithm development has focused on
speech understanding in adverse listening conditions. Innovative designs with dual …

This paper presents a smartphone-based binaural hearing aid architecture for improving the
speech intelligibility of hearing aid users. The proposed system consists of an earpiece, a …

The performance of a deep-learning-based speech enhancement (SE) technology for
hearing aid users, called a deep denoising autoencoder (DDAE), was investigated. The …

Background noise is a critical issue for hearing aid device users; a common solution to
address this problem is speech enhancement (SE). In recent times, a novel SE approach …

Many hearing aid users are negatively impacted by wind noise when spending time
outdoors. Turbulent airflow around hearing aid microphones caused by the obstruction of …

Speech de-nosing is one of the essential processes done inside hearing aids, and has
recently shown a great improvement when applied using deep learning. However, when …

Almost half a billion people world-wide suffer from disabling hearing loss. While hearing
aids can partially compensate for this, a large proportion of users struggle to understand …

Hearing aid users suffer from poor listening experiences under noise and reverberation.
This paper introduces a cascaded speech enhancement system to improve the intelligibility …
