Low-Power End-to-End Cochlear Implant Speech Denoising with Spiking Neural Networks
Ludovic Boulanger, Sean U. N. Wood
Cochlear implants (CI) restore hearing for individuals with severe to profound hearing loss. However, CI users often struggle to understand speech in noisy environments. Deep neura…

Multirate State Space Models for End-to-End Processing of Pulse Density Modulated Speech Signals
Ludovic Boulanger, Sean U. N. Wood
Deep neural networks (DNNs) based on state-space models (SSMs) are increasingly applied to speech processing, but typically operate on pulse-code-modulated (PCM) audio. This constr…
