Perceiving Loudness, Pitch, and Location

202
The human brain perceives pitch through two primary mechanisms reflected in place theory and frequency theory. Each mechanism describes how sound waves are interpreted as specific pitches by the brain, offering insights into the intricate processes of auditory perception.
Place theory, or place coding, suggests that different pitches are heard because various sound waves activate specific locations along the cochlea's basilar membrane. The brain determines the pitch of a sound by...

Area of Science:

  • Audiology
  • Signal Processing
  • Machine Learning

Background:

  • Auditory evoked potentials (AEPs) are crucial for infant hearing evaluations.
  • Manual AEP analysis is time-consuming and subjective, impacting quality control.
  • Objective methods are needed to improve AEP-based hearing assessments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Evaluate Gaussian processes (GPs) with active learning for auditory brainstem response (ABR) audiogram estimation in adults.
  • Assess the accuracy and efficiency of GPs compared to traditional methods.
  • Investigate the potential of GPs for automated hearing threshold determination.

Main Methods:

  • Applied GPs with active learning to estimate ABR audiograms in normal-hearing and hearing-impaired adults.
  • Evaluated GP accuracy using hearing threshold estimation error.
  • Measured test time by the number of epochs required for threshold localization.
  • Compared GP performance against visual inspection by clinicians and standard behavioral tests.

Main Results:

  • GPs demonstrated unbiased performance with a median estimation error of 0 dB HL.
  • GP approach reduced test time by approximately 50% compared to human examiners.
  • Examiner-estimated thresholds were 5-15 dB HL higher than behavioral thresholds.

Conclusions:

  • GPs with active learning provide accurate, real-time ABR audiogram estimation.
  • This method significantly reduces testing time and introduces objectivity.
  • GPs show potential for next-generation ABR hearing assessment devices.
