Abstract

The problem of speech understanding in the presence of background noise is a difficult one, especially for users of cochlear implants. Although these users can often perform well on speech tasks in quiet, they typically show rapid declines in background noise. The retention of low-frequency residual acoustic hearing has been shown to provide significant benefit in this regard. Data will be presented on our work on this topic, from characterizing the benefit to exploring ways of providing it to cochlear implant users who do not show a benefit typically.
