Speech recognition in noise as a function of the number of spectral channels: Comparison of acoustic hearing and cochlear implants
LM Friesen, RV Shannon, D Baskent… - The Journal of the …, 2001 - pubs.aip.org
Speech recognition was measured as a function of spectral resolution (number of spectral
channels) and speech-to-noise ratio in normal-hearing (NH) and cochlear-implant (CI)
listeners. Vowel, consonant, word, and sentence recognition were measured in five normal-
hearing listeners, ten listeners with the Nucleus-22 cochlear implant, and nine listeners with
the Advanced Bionics Clarion cochlear implant. Recognition was measured as a function of
the number of spectral channels (noise bands or electrodes) at signal-to-noise ratios of+ …
