Weighting Function-Based Mapping of Descriptors to Frequency-Gain Curves in Listeners With Hearing Loss

Conclusions: The current approach for descriptor-to-FGC mapping is a quick, reliable method for determining individualized changes to the FGC. Given the range of individual differences in the specifics of the descriptor-to-FGC mappings observed, this approach could be useful in a clinical setting to easily quantify these acoustic parameters. Implementation of such procedures could lead to more personalized fine-tuning of amplification devices.
