New Tinnitus Procedure Uses EEGs to Understand Distress Level and Diagnose Patients

An international team of researchers led by Andrea Soddu at Western University in Canada has developed a new classification procedure for tinnitus patients using data acquired by electroencephalography (EEG), which measures electrical activity in the brain using small electrodes placed on the scalp.

Data-driven audiogram classifier using data normalization and multi-stage feature selection

Researchers from Malaysia and Dubai introduce a new machine-learning (ML) technique that classifies audiograms at any 8 frequencies (125-8000 Hz) according to their shape. They believe this is the first ML trial to classify audiogram shape, and has the potential to reduce complexity in designing and configuring hearing aids—reducing the number of responses and trials made by the audiologist and the patients in a practice.
