    Speech processing for cochlear implants
    Tong, Y. C. ; Millar, J. B. ; Blamey, P. J. ; Clark, Graeme M. ; Dowell, R. C. ; Patrick, J. F. ; Seligman, P. M. (JAI Press Ltd, 1992)
    The cochlear implant is a hearing prosthesis designed to replace the function of the ear. The operation of the prosthesis can be described as a sequence of four functions: the processing of the acoustic signal received by a microphone; the transfer of the processed signal through the skin; the creation of neural activity in the auditory nerve; and the integration of the experience of this neural activity into the perceptual and cognitive processing of the implantee.

    Where to now? - Impact of New Technologies on use of cochlear implants
    Van Hoesel, R. ; Zhang, A. ; Tykocinski, M. ; Dham, M. ; Patrick, J. ; Parker, J. ; Clark, Graeme M. ; Cowan, R. S. C. ; Saunders, E. ; Vandali, A. E. ; Dowell, R. C. ; Treaba, C. ; Harrison, J. M. ( 2000)
    The history of cochlear implant use by adults and children with profound hearing loss although relatively short (20 some years), has been characterised by continual technological innovations which have enhanced the performance, packaging, and clinical use of these devices. In particular, the development of the Nucleus multiple channel cochlear implant has included a series of speech processing hardware and speech processing strategy, implemented by Cochlear Limited, and based on research findings that have resulted in an increase in mean speech perception benefits for adults and children.

    Clinical comparison of open-set speech perception with MSP and WSPIII speech processors and preliminary results for the new SPEAK processor [Abstracts]
    Whitford, Lesley A. ; Partick, James F. ; Clark, Graeme M. ; Dowell, Richard C. ; Marsh, Michael A. ; HOLLOW, RODNEY ; Blamey, Peter J. ; Pyman, Brian C. ; Seligman, Peter M. ( 1993)
    There are several studies which compare the WSP III (FOIF11F2) and MSP (Multipeak) speech processors for the Nucleus multiple-channel cochlear implant in small, controlled groups of patients. In the present study we were interested in the benefits of open set speech perception provided by the MSP over the prior WSP III speech processor in a large, unselected clinical population.
