Generating hearing aid microphone recordings including head movement in virtual acoustic environments resembling everyday life
Year: 2020
Type: software
Abstract: This database describes how to generate hearing aid microphone recordings including head movement in virtual environments resembling everyday life. These recordings were used in the accompanying paper to evaluate the influence of head movement on hearing aid algorithm performance (Hendrikse et al., 2020). Also the processing with the hearing aid algorithms is described, so that the results from this study can be replicated. The hearing aid microphone recordings may be useful for studying the performance of directional algorithms of commercial hearing aids as well as for investigating the potential of (attention-) steered directional filters. The virtual environments and the head movement data that was recorded in them were published accompanying a previous paper (Hendrikse et al., 2019a, 2019b, 2019c). An example is provided that demonstrates the method without having to download those databases.
