Abstract
We are developing a real-time, wearable, Open-source Speech-Processing platform (OSP) that can be configured by audiologists and Hearing Aid (HA) researchers for lab and field studies. This contribution describes OSP tools to (i) control the HA state, such as amplification parameters in each subband, (ii) provide stimuli to the user, and (iii) get feedback from the user. The system is based on a web server with interfaces to the HA state, the environment state (e.g., background noise characteristics, reverberation conditions, GPS location, etc.) and the user state (as inferred from ecological momentary assessments). We describe Application Programmer’s Interfaces (APIs) used in Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and server side scripting language (e.g., PHP) to create web applications aimed at assessing efficacy of various Hearing Loss (HL) compensation approaches. HTML and PHP are versatile tools and lot easier to develop functional skills compared with software tools used in the OSP. We provide example sc...
