Abstract

Cochlear implant systems are used for hearing re/habilitation in case of hearing loss and in cases where conventional hearing aids are insufficient. Cochlear implant technologies are developing rapidly. Signal processing and speech coding strategies are among the main topics of interest in the development of these technologies. Considering the limited stimulation of the cochlear implant electrodes; various signal processing strategies have been developed to provide users with the clearest and most natural sound possible. The aim of this literature review was to examine the speech processing strategies in cochlear implant systems. In light of the findings in the literature, the effects of different strategies on speech perception outcomes show great variability. Instead of establishing a common best-performing strategy for all users, selecting an individual strategy seems to be preferable for the best benefit.

Özet

Koklear implantlar, işitme kaybı olması durumunda ve konvansiyonelişitme cihazlarının yetersiz kaldığı durumlarda işitmenin rehabilitasyonuiçin kullanılmaktadır. Koklear implant teknolojileri hızlı birşekilde gelişmektedir. Sinyal işlemleme ve konuşma kodlama stratejileriise bu teknolojilerin gelişiminde başlıca ilgi duyulan konular arasındayer almaktadır. Koklear implant elektrotlarının sınırlı uyarımı gözönünde bulundurularak, kullanıcılarına mümkün olan en net ve en doğalsesi sunmayı amaçlayan çeşitli sinyal işlemleme stratejileri geliştirilmiştir.Bu derlemenin amacı, farklı firmalara ait konuşma işleme stratejileridetaylı bir şekilde incelemektir. Literatürde bu konuda yer alanbilgiler ışığında, farklı stratejilerinin konuşma algısı sonuçları üzerindekietkilerinin değişkenlik göstermektedir. Koklear implant kullanıcılarındaen iyi performansı elde etmek için ortak bir strateji belirlemekyerine, işitsel gelişim ve bireysel ihtiyaçlar göz önünde bulundurularakkişiye uygun bir strateji belirlemek, uygun programlama parametreleriylekullanıcının gelişimini desteklemek ve konuşma algısı çıktılarınıobjektif test yöntemleriyle takip etmek büyük önem arz etmektedir.
