Speech understanding in noise is difficult for patients with a cochlear implant. One common and disruptive type of noise is transient noise. We have tested transient noise reduction (TNR) algorithms in cochlear implant users to investigate the merits of personalizing the noise reduction settings based on a subject's own preference.
