利用其他感知通路提供的信息可以对聋人进行无损的听觉补偿。提出了一种基于自组织特征映射网络的聋人无损听觉补偿方法。聋人利用自组织特征映射网络输出层的可视化信息监听自己的声音。结果表明,自组织特征为提高聋人的语言功能提供一种新的途径。
Humans suffering from a range of communication (speech and hearing) disorder may access the auditory information through other perceptional pathway. The application of the self-organized feature map was explored using for the deaf to help improve the ability of pronunciation. The deaf-impaired learn to speak by visual information, just as normal people learn to speak by hearing. It is shown that the proposed method may be a useful speech therapy tool.
