Abstract
A system and methods are used to enable hearing device calibration using auditory filters. The system and methods are used to reduce processing time for estimating auditory filters for new hearing device users and can be performed by the user without the aid of an audiologist. The system and methods use a database of notched-noise test results of other users to create a prior distribution of possible auditory filter parameters. The prior distribution is used to minimize the number of notched-noise test performed, thereby reducing the amount of calibration time.
