Speaker Identification with Cochlear Implant

The Cochlear Implant

The studies on cochlear implants have been conducted in the United States, Austria, Brasil, France, Finland, and some other countries. Up to now, this technique does not seem to have a wide spread application. Indeed it can only apply cases of deafness still presenting sufficient neural remnants to transmit the message. Moreover, the patient must be totally deaf( quasi­ complete loss of har cel...

Melodic contour identification by cochlear implant listeners.

OBJECTIVE While the cochlear implant provides many deaf patients with good speech understanding in quiet, music perception and appreciation with the cochlear implant remains a major challenge for most cochlear implant users. The present study investigated whether a closed-set melodic contour identification (MCI) task could be used to quantify cochlear implant users' ability to recognize musical...

Cochlear implant-like processing of speech signal for speaker verification

In this paper, we investigate the cochlear implant-like processing of speech signal in speaker verification. This processing was applied on each speech utterance, in the temporal domain, to reduce spectral information in the original speech signal and synthesize a new one, called cochlear implant-like spectrally reduced speech (SRS), only from low-bandwidth subband temporal envelopes of the ori...
