Cochlear implants (CIs) are neural prosthetics which are used to treat patients with hearing loss. CIs use an array of electrodes which are surgically inserted into the cochlea to stimulate the auditory nerve endings. After surgery, CIs…

Cochlear implants (CIs) are a standard treatment for patients who experience severe to profound hearing loss. Recent studies have shown that hearing outcome is correlated with intra-cochlear anatomy and electrode placement. Our group has…

Cochlear implants (CIs) play a vital role in restoring hearing for individuals with severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss by directly stimulating the auditory nerve with electrical signals. While traditional coding strategies, such…

Cochlear implants (CIs) are devices that restore the sense of hearing in people with severe sensorineural hearing loss. An electrode array inserted in the cochlea bypasses the natural transducer mechanism that transforms mechanical sound…

Cochlear Implant (CI) surgery treats severe hearing loss by inserting an electrode array into the cochlea to stimulate the auditory nerve. An important step in this procedure is mastoidectomy, which removes part of the mastoid region of the…

Robotic cochlear-implant (CI) insertion requires precise prediction and regulation of contact forces to minimize intracochlear trauma and prevent failure modes such as locking and buckling. Aligned with the integration of advanced medical…

While micro-CT systems are instrumental in preclinical research, clinical micro-CT imaging has long been desired with cochlear implantation as a primary example. The structural details of the cochlear implant and the temporal bone require a…

Bimodal cochlear implant users show poor localization performance. One reason for this is a difference in the processing latency between the hearing aid and the cochlear implant side. It has been shown that reducing this latency difference…

We propose a brain-informed speech separation method for cochlear implants (CIs) that uses electroencephalography (EEG)-derived attention cues to guide enhancement toward the attended speaker. An attention-guided network fuses audio…

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) plays a pivotal role in our daily lives, offering utility not only for interacting with machines but also for facilitating communication for individuals with partial or profound hearing impairments. The…

Speaker recognition is a biometric modality that uses underlying speech information to determine the identity of the speaker. Speaker Identification (SID) under noisy conditions is one of the challenging topics in the field of speech…

Cochlear implants (CIs) have been developed to the point where they can restore hearing and speech understanding in a large proportion of patients. Although spatial hearing is central to controlling and directing attention and to enabling…

Electrode density optimization in electroencephalography (EEG)-based Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) requires balancing practical usability against signal fidelity, particularly for source localization. Reducing electrodes enhances…

Cochlear implants (CI) significantly improve spoken language in children with severe-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), yet outcomes remain more variable than in children with normal hearing. This variability cannot be reliably…

For those experiencing severe-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss, the cochlear implant (CI) is the preferred treatment. Augmented reality (AR) aided surgery can potentially improve CI procedures and hearing outcomes. Typically, AR…

Cochlear implant (CI) users have considerable difficulty in understanding speech in reverberant listening environments. Time-frequency (T-F) masking is a common technique that aims to improve speech intelligibility by multiplying…

Given rising numbers of bilateral cochlear implant (CI) users, predominantly children, there is a clinical need for efficient and reliable tests that can objectively evaluate binaural hearing. These tests are crucial for guiding the setup…

Background & Purpose: Chest X-Ray (CXR) use in pre-MRI safety screening for Lead-Less Implanted Electronic Devices (LLIEDs), easily overlooked or misidentified on a frontal view (often only acquired), is common. Although most LLIED types…

Electrical hearing by cochlear implants (CIs) may be fundamentally different from acoustic hearing by normal-hearing (NH) listeners, presumably showing unequal speech quality perception in various noise environments. Noise reduction (NR)…

Individual tooth segmentation from cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images is an essential prerequisite for an anatomical understanding of orthodontic structures in several applications, such as tooth reformation planning and implant…
