Despite advances in technology, the ability to perceive music remains limited for many
cochlear implant users. This paper reviews the technological, biological, and acoustical …

Although the cochlear implant has been widely acknowledged as the most successful neural
prosthesis, only a fraction of hearing-impaired people who can potentially benefit from a …

Contemporary cochlear implants with multiple electrode stimulation can produce good
speech perception but poor music perception. Hindered by the lack of a gold standard to …

Sharp spatial selectivity is critical to auditory performance, particularly in pitch-related tasks.
Most contemporary cochlear implants have employed monopolar stimulation that produces …

The application of cochlear implants can be studied with computational models. The
electrical potential distribution induced by an implanted device is evaluated with a volume …

Due to limitations of human in vivo studies, detailed computational models enable
understanding the neural signaling in the degenerated auditory system and cochlear …

Objectives/Hypothesis The variability in speech perception between cochlear implant users
is thought to result from the degeneration of the auditory nerve. Degeneration of the auditory …

A growing number of laboratories are using research interfaces to conduct experiments with
cochlear-implant (CI) users. Because these interfaces bypass a subject's clinical sound …

ABSTRACT Introduction Cochlear implants (CIs) are biomedical devices that restore sound
perception for people with severe-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss. Most postlingually …

Objective. Despite the widespread use and technical improvement of cochlear implant (CI)
devices over past decades, further research into the bioelectric bases of CI stimulation is still …
