... Candidates for an implant have to meet certain criteria prior to the operation because it is an expensive procedure. For children, there added criteria because the success of the implant is dependant on sufficient input from the child’s care-givers and the medical/educational team around the child. ...

Cochlear Implants for Sensorineural Hearing Loss
... rather unpleasant jolt. This idea was resurrected in the 1950s by the French surgeons Djourno and Eyries, who were able to elicit a hearing sensation in a deaf person using an electrode placed into the cochlea after surgery. In the early 1970s, Dr. William House of the House Ear Institute in Los Ang ...

Speech perception

Speech perception is the process by which the sounds of language are heard, interpreted and understood. The study of speech perception is closely linked to the fields of phonology and phonetics in linguistics and cognitive psychology and perception in psychology. Research in speech perception seeks to understand how human listeners recognize speech sounds and use this information to understand spoken language. Speech perception research has applications in building computer systems that can recognize speech, in improving speech recognition for hearing- and language-impaired listeners, and in foreign-language teaching.
