Embodiment Construction

[0051] Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. It should be emphasized that the following description is only exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of the invention and its application.

[0052] refer to Figure 1 to Figure 3 , the embodiment of the present invention provides a neural network-based user-adaptive hearing aid self-fitting method, the method first obtains the audiogram according to the pure tone audiometry, and fits a set of initial signal processing parameters according to the audiogram, and the user wears the pre-adjusted hearing aid. The hearing aid with this set of parameters is used for multiple rounds of speech audiometry and parameter adjustment. After each speech audiometry is completed, the speech audiometry recognition probability model predicts the user's speech performance under various parameter groups based on all the user's speech audiometry records. The recognition probabilities of different speech audiomet...

Abstract

A user adaptive hearing aid self-fitting method based on a neural network comprises the following steps: fitting a group of initial signal processing parameters according to an audiogram obtained by pure tone audiometry of a user; performing multiple rounds of speech audiometry and parameter adjustment through a hearing aid which is worn by a user and is pre-adjusted with the signal processing parameters; wherein after each time of speech audiometry is completed, the speech audiometry recognition probability model based on the neural network predicts the recognition probability of the user on different speech audiometry corpora under various parameter groups according to the speech audiometry record of the user; the parameter group optimization system obtains several parameter groups enabling the speech audiometry recognition rate of the user to be the highest for the user to select according to the prediction result, and parameters continue to be finely adjusted based on the parameter groups selected by the user; and performing speech audiometry and parameter adjustment continuously and iteratively until the hearing aid is deployed to meet a predetermined hearing aid effect. According to the invention, the fitting of the hearing aid is convenient, and the accuracy of the fitting result is improved at the same time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fitting technology of a digital hearing aid, in particular to a neural network-based user-adaptive hearing aid self-fitting method. Background technique [0002] The fitting of traditional digital hearing aids needs to go to a professional fitting center with the help of experts and professional equipment. Such a matching process is cumbersome and expensive. In recent years, with the development of related technologies, more and more user-independent fitting methods without the intervention of experts and professional equipment have been proposed. The current self-fitting methods mainly have the following problems: (1) The preset parameter set cannot be accurately Match user needs. (2) The convenience of the fitting process and the accuracy of the fitting results cannot be guaranteed at the same time. (3) Rely on the subjective feedback of the user, and do not make full use of the objective listening results of the user. ...
