The hardware implementation of a pulsed neuron based system has been
previously proposed. The system identifies sound sources in a similar way to
the human auditory system, with the aim of assisting hearing impaired
people. A survey among people with hearing loss was conducted in order to
identify important sounds to be recognized by the system. However, the previously proposed system cannot correctly identify these sounds, as it only uses spectral information. This paper proposes a new method which
additionally uses temporal information in the recognition process. The
experimental results confirm the superiority of the proposed approach when comparing to the previous model, confirming its potential for the
implementation of practical aiding systems for hearing impaired people. |
