One in six Australians is affected by hearing loss. Hearing loss impacts on a person's educational and employment opportunities, resulting in a significant economic impact upon Australia. Over 10% of people with hearing impairment have a severe or profound hearing loss and may be candidates for a cochlear implant. Current cochlear implant sound processing only offers limited benefit to users. This project represents a truly innovative pathway forward in the development of cochlear implant sound coding that could substantially increase the speech perception of users, enabling these people to become and remain active and productive members of our community.

每六个澳大利亚人中就有一个受到听力损失的影响。听力损失影响一个人的教育和就业机会，给澳大利亚带来重大的经济影响。超过10%的听力障碍者有严重或严重的听力损失，可能需要植入人工耳蜗。目前的人工耳蜗声处理只能为使用者提供有限的益处。该项目代表了人工耳蜗声音编码发展的一条真正的创新之路，可以大幅提高用户的语音感知，使这些人成为并保持活跃和富有成效的社区成员。
