Speech intelligibility evaluation for hearing-impaired (HI) listeners is essential for assessing hearing aid performance, traditionally relying on listening tests or intrusive methods like HASPI. However, these methods require clean…

Neural networks have been successfully used for non-intrusive speech intelligibility prediction. Recently, the use of feature representations sourced from intermediate layers of pre-trained self-supervised and weakly-supervised models has…

Automated speech intelligibility assessment is pivotal for hearing aid (HA) development. In this paper, we present three novel methods to improve intelligibility prediction accuracy and introduce MBI-Net+, an enhanced version of MBI-Net,…

Improving the user's hearing ability to understand speech in noisy environments is critical to the development of hearing aid (HA) devices. For this, it is important to derive a metric that can fairly predict speech intelligibility for HA…

The integration of artificial intelligence into hearing assistance marks a paradigm shift from traditional amplification-based systems to intelligent, context-aware audio processing. This systematic literature review evaluates advances in…

Hearing aids are expected to improve speech intelligibility for listeners with hearing impairment. An appropriate amplification fitting tuned for the listener's hearing disability is critical for good performance. The developments of most…

Self-supervised speech representations (SSSRs) have been successfully applied to a number of speech-processing tasks, e.g. as feature extractor for speech quality (SQ) prediction, which is, in turn, relevant for assessment and training…

Without the need of a clean reference, non-intrusive speech assessment methods have caught great attention for objective evaluations. Recently, deep neural network (DNN) models have been applied to build non-intrusive speech assessment…

Without the need for a clean reference, non-intrusive speech assessment methods have caught great attention for objective evaluations. While deep learning models have been used to develop non-intrusive speech assessment methods with…

The estimation of speech intelligibility is still far from being a solved problem. Especially one aspect is problematic: most of the standard models require a clean reference signal in order to estimate intelligibility. This is an issue of…

Background. Hearing aid technology has proven successful in the rehabilitation of hearing loss, but its performance is still limited in difficult everyday conditions characterized by noise and reverberation. Objectives. Introduction to the…

Given the critical role of non-intrusive speech intelligibility assessment in hearing aids (HA), this paper enhances its performance by introducing Feature Importance across Domains (FiDo). We estimate feature importance on spectral and…

Non-intrusive intelligibility prediction is important for its application in realistic scenarios, where a clean reference signal is difficult to access. The construction of many non-intrusive predictors require either ground truth…

Current hearing aids normally provide amplification based on a general prescriptive fitting, and the benefits provided by the hearing aids vary among different listening environments despite the inclusion of noise suppression feature.…

An accurate objective speech intelligibility prediction algorithms is of great interest for many applications such as speech enhancement for hearing aids. Most algorithms measures the signal-to-noise ratios or correlations between the…

This paper introduces HAAQI-Net, a non-intrusive deep learning-based music audio quality assessment model for hearing aid users. Unlike traditional methods like the Hearing Aid Audio Quality Index (HAAQI) that require intrusive reference…

This review paper explores recent advances in deep learning approaches for non-invasive cognitive impairment detection. We examine various non-invasive indicators of cognitive decline, including speech and language, facial, and motoric…

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 speech in situations with background noise. Here, we…

Advancing the design of robust hearing aid (HA) voice control is crucial to increase the HA use rate among hard of hearing people as well as to improve HA users' experience. In this work, we contribute towards this goal by, first,…

We investigate the objective performance of five high-end commercially available Hearing Aid (HA) devices compared to DNN-based speech enhancement algorithms in complex acoustic environments. To this end, we measure the HRTFs of a single HA…
