Abstract
A multi-dimensional audiogram providing apparatus includes a processor; and a memory connected to the processor, and the memory stores program instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to output a pure tone audiogram related to a hearing threshold for a subject measured in N frequency on a first surface of a polyhedron; to define a plurality of harmonic templates by rearranging the N frequency bands into a frequency set including a plurality of element frequencies; to calculate a standard deviation of hearing thresholds of a plurality of element frequencies to calculate a harmonic template instability degree; to output the calculated harmonic template instability degree on a second surface of the polyhedron; to calculate an average of the hearing thresholds of the plurality of element frequencies to calculate a harmonic template hearing; and to output the calculated harmonic template hearing on a third surface of the polyhedron.
