This study introduces a reliable linear segmentation method for analyzing auditory brainstem responses. Optimal results for hearing defect detection were achieved with a segment length of 8 samples and fewer than 10 segment classes.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Signal Processing
  • Audiology

Background:

  • Auditory brainstem responses (ABRs) are crucial for diagnosing hearing defects in audiology and otoneurology.
  • Increasing reliance on computer programs for ABR analysis necessitates highly reliable pattern recognition algorithms.
  • Preprocessing steps like filtering and segmentation are essential for accurate ABR signal analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore and optimize linear segmentation as a preprocessing technique for biomedical signals, specifically ABRs.
  • To determine the most effective parameters for linear segmentation in the context of ABR analysis.
  • To assess the suitability of clustering for classifying signal segments in pattern recognition.

Main Methods:

  • Investigated linear segmentation by computing slopes of short signal segments.
