Signal Processing in Audiology

Designing the new methods for recording neurophysiological signals from the human auditory system

The Signal Processing in Audiology research team consists of researchers from the ‘Signal Theory, Telematics and Communications’, ‘Electronics and Computer Technology’ and ‘Surgery and Surgical Specialties’ departments at the University of Granada, as well as medical personnel from the ‘Otorhinolaryngology’ service of the San Cecilio Clinical University Hospital in Granada, Spain.

Our research focuses on Auditory Evoked Potentials (AEPs), voltage-wave signals recorded via electrophysiology that represent neurophysiological activity elicited by an auditory stimulus. Our objectives are:

  • Open up new methods in hearing research by developing technology that enables the study of the human auditory system in highly flexible conditions
  • Empower clinicians with efficient and easy-to-use diagnostic toolkits
  • Provide industry with disruptive algorithms that improve quality and expand the functionalities of their products
  • Help society gain awareness on the adverse effects of noise overexposure and promote the adoption of healthy hearing habits to prevent hearing loss
