A Computational Approach to Optimal Deactivation of Cochlear Implant Electrodes

Description

The goal of the present study is to use computationally driven models of speech understanding in CI users to guide the search for which combination of active electrodes can yield the best speech understanding for a specific patient. It is hypothesized that model-recommended settings will result in significantly better speech understanding than standard-of-care settings.
