A sound coding strategy based on a temporal masking model for cochlear implants

Speech intelligibility performance with different temporal masking half-lifes s using the HSM sentence test in noise.
The absolute performance difference between MP3000 and different TPACE conditions is presented for the first (green) and second (blue) study. Each dot shows the averaged result of each subject in the respective condition, the group median is presented as a bar in the respective group color. Speech intelligibility in noise with TPACE T½ = 0.5 ms was significantly better than MP3000 in the first study (p < 0.05; Quade test with three groups). The statistical analysis of the second study using Quade test with five groups did not show a significant difference between conditions.
