Improved tactile speech robustness to background noise with a dual-path recurrent neural network noise-reduction method

Abstract Many people with hearing loss struggle to understand speech in noisy environments, making noise robustness critical for hearing-assistive devices. Recently developed haptic hearing aids, which convert audio to vibration, can improve speech-in-noise performance for cochlear implant (CI) user...
