Head
Prof. Dr. Mathias Dietz
mathias.dietz@uni-oldenburg.de +49 441 798 - 3832 W30-1-106 |
Mathias is studying how sound input to the left and right ear interacts in the brain. A main goal is to account for human perception in both normal and impaired hearing, using physiologically plausible computer simulations. We use our knowledge from basic research for improving signal processing and fitting of cochlear implants and hearing aids.
Postdocs
Mohammad Dehghani
mohammad.dehghani@uni-oldenburg.de +49 441 798 - 3588 W30-1-107 |
Mohammad applies his background in theoretical physics and computational neuroscience to research the physics of hearing. His current investigations focus on inferring binaural processing mechanisms from training deep neural networks and studying the artificial network architechture.
Ph.D. Students
Rebecca Felsheim
rebecca.felsheim@uni-oldenburg.de +49 441 798 - 3588 W30-1-107 |
Rebecca is a Ph.D. student with a background in Biomedical Engineering and Advanced Signal Processing and Communications Engineering. She is developing a fast deterministic model of auditory nerve fibers stimulated by cochlear Implant electrodes. She is also involved in fitting the latency of patients with a cochlear implant on one and a hearing aid on the other ear.
Master Students
Anna-Lena Reinsch
anna-lena.reinsch@uni-oldenburg.de +49 441 798 - 3468 W30-1-108 |
Anna-Lena is an MSc student in the programme Physics, Engineering and Medicine (PTM). Her thesis topic is Frequency- and Level-Adaptive Categorical Loudness Scaling.
Janique Reinwaldt
janique.reinwaldt@uni-oldenburg.de +49 441 798 - 3468 W30-3-337 |
Janique is an MSc student in the programme Hearing Technology & Audiology. In her master thesis she is investigating the ability of hearing impaired people to use binaural signals and thus predict the influence on the individual benefit of beamforming in hearing aids.
