Abstract: Abstract: ObjectiveTo apply the classic leakage integrate-and-fire models, based on the mechanism of the generation of
physiological auditory stimulation, in the information processing coding of cochlear implants to improve the auditory result.
MethodsThe results of algorithm simulation in digital signal processor (DSP) were imported into Matlab for a comparative
analysis.ResultsCompared with CIS coding, the algorithm of membrane potential integrate-and-fire (MPIF) allowed more
natural pulse discharge in a pseudo-random manner to better fit the physiological structures.ConclusionThe MPIF algorithm
can effectively solve the problem of the dynamic structure of the delivered auditory information sequence issued in the
auditory center and allowed integration of the stimulating pulses and time coding to ensure the coherence and relevance of the
stimulating pulse time.
