(University of Pretoria, 2008-08-19)High levels of speech recognition have been obtained with cochlear implant users in quiet conditions. In noisy environments, speech recognition deteriorates considerably, especially in speech-like noise. The aim of this ...
-
(University of Pretoria, 2019)Post-implantation facial nerve stimulation is a common side-effect of cochlear electrical stimulation. Facial nerve stimulation can often be resolved through adjustments in speech processor fitting but, in some instances, ...
-
(University of Pretoria, 2007-01-24)A comparison of the ability of different spatial filters to reduce the amount of crosstalk in a surface electromyography (sEMG) measurement was conducted. It focused on the influence of different properties of the muscle ...
-
(University of Pretoria, 2019)To investigate cochlear implant (CI) performance, geometric computational models of the cochlea have been used to assess and optimise electrode insertion strategies and to investigate current flow through the cochlear ...
-
(University of Pretoria, 2009)Cochlear implants are electronic devices intended for restoring hearing to the profoundly deaf. Unfortunately the degree of restored hearing varies greatly between subjects. To investigate some of the mechanisms that ...
-
(University of Pretoria, 2008-09-09)A finite element (FE) model for the generation of single fiber action potentials (SFAPs) in a muscle undergoing various degrees of fiber shortening has been developed. The muscle is assumed to be fusiform with muscle fibers ...
-
(University of Pretoria, 2010-10-02)This study determined whether the Hodgkin-Huxley model for unmyelinated nerve fibres could be more comprehensively modified to predict excitation behaviour at Ranvier nodes of a human sensory nerve fibre, as specifically ...
-
(2012)The degree of hearing restoration provided by the cochlear implant is prone to inter-subject variance. The objective of this study is to account for some of the factors influencing this through a subject-specific model ...
-
(University of Pretoria, 2015)Cochlear implants have successfully been used to enable hundreds of thousands of profoundly deaf people to regain some perception of hearing. Hearing performance does, however, vary greatly among individual implant users. ...
