📢 New study! We used machine learning to classify noises as either energetic or informational, and tested speech recognition in Swedish using HINT and Hagerman. Scoring both keywords and sentences showed important differences. Normal-hearing individuals, both young and old, performed alike, while those with hearing loss achieved poorer results.

🎶👂 Did you know? Human hearing is amazing! We can detect everything from the lowest rumble of a subway train (🚇 20 Hz) to the highest chirp of a bat (🦇 20,000 Hz).
🔄 As we age, we gradually lose some of this range.
