Outline of Final Research Achievements |
When we proposed a music transposition method by the cochlear implant scale corresponding to the analysis filter of the cochlear implant and it was guessed that better scales for hearing differ for every CIR(Cochlear Implant Recipient). We developed a system for music listening support system for CIR named “KaiMeiKa”(nostalgic good songs) which enabled to adjust the transposition process to a cochlear implant scale for each CIR by themselves and by the systematic learning process. Based on CIR reports, we developed acoustic simulations of cochlear implant to show the effects of the cochlear implant scale,then proceeded to the design of a new cochlear implant that enables music listening. We prepared a set of 15 songs that are enjoyable for CIR considering familiarity,ages epidemic,musical intervals of the main melody,and rhythms. Those songs are played by female and male and whistle singers who are trained professional skills,and are played with the transposition.
