INTRODUCTION
It is well-known that noisy environments are inevitable because of the rapid development of industrialization, and noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) has become a severe disease worldwide (Ide and Morimitsu, 1990; Akdogan et al., 2009; Jacob et al., 2013). However, high-intensity sound exposure, which may not occur commonly in the environment, has been transformed as a novel non-lethal weapon that can be used by authorities to disperse crowds.
Hearing detection is the most direct

Problems with hearing aids, particularly with regard to speech intelligibility in the presence of noise, are commonly reported by older individuals in everyday practice. The main goal of this study was to measure differences in speech intelligibility between older and younger people and to establish how speech intelligibility in competitive noise differs between younger and older populations with similar hearing status. More than 400 persons were tested using the Czech Test of Sentence

meningiomas, ependymomas and gliomas (Evans, Sainio, & Baser, 2000)
The mean age of onset of symptomatic VS is 20-30 years (Parry et al., 1994). Patients who develop VS tumours in childhood are expected to live into their thirties, and this is improving with modern advancements (Evans et al., 2019). Larger tumours incur worse prognosis (Otsuka, Saito, Nagatani, & Yoshida, 2003). Diagnosis typically follows investigation of hearing loss or visual disturbance. VS tumours are usually bilateral, and

Human Computer Interaction moves forward in the field of sign language interpretation.Indian Sign Language (ISL) Interpretation system is a good way to help the Indian hearing impaired people to interact with normal people with the help of computer. As compared to other sign languages, ISL interpretation has got less attention by the researcher. In this paper, some historical background, need, scope and concern of ISL are given. Vision based hand gesture recognition system have been discussed

Research into human hearing has been ‘laboratory’ oriented in the sense that the test environments do not replicate most ‘real world’ situations (Middlebrooks & Green, 1991). It is difficult to see how such tests accurately represent ‘real world’ situations regarding sound source localisation, recognition, and navigation (walking/way-finding) performance. The research reported here was conducted during the development of an audio-based indoor navigation
