A Hybrid Trial To Trial Wavelet Coherence and Novelty Detection Scheme for a Fast and Clear Notification of the Uncomfortable Loudness Level

To determine the uncomfortable loudness (UCL) level is not an easy task, especially in children. A need to objectively measure this level is crucial as the age of hearing devices candidates is getting younger. Previous studies have shown that the feasibility of habituation correlates in late auditor...
