Dear members of the auditory list,
I've recently been working on behavioral auditory source localization performance in hearing aid users. To support my behavioral findings, I am exploring computational auditory models for various configurations of hearing loss.
Through the review of the literature, I found that the direction-of-arrival models proposed by Dietz et al. (2011) and Kayser et al. (2015) are suitable for my experiment where the interpretation based on pre-estimated IPD-to-azimuth mappings with respect to Interaural Coherence and probability distributions. However, both of these models do not account for hearing loss characteristics.
I would greatly appreciate suggestions for other auditory models that might be suitable for my purpose. Additionally, I am wondering whether I can replace the cochlear and basilar membrane processing steps in Dietz et al. (2011) with the hearing loss models. If anyone has experience with this approach, I would be grateful for your advice.
Thank you in advance for your suggestions!!
Best regards,
