Patent Images
1. A method of automatically ascertaining parameter values of a hearing aid, the method comprising:
- carrying out a computer-linguistic analysis by analyzing a user-specific blog entry in a weblog on a computer-linguistic basis;
reducing results of the computer-linguistic analysis to such results as are directed to a subjective auditory perception of a user of the hearing aid;
associating the reduced results directed to the subjective auditory perception of the user with a specific auditory situation;
extracting user-specific desired changes from the reduced results directed to the subjective auditory perception of the user; and
taking the user-specific desired changes for the specific auditory situation as a basis for ascertaining adaptive parameter values, and offering the adaptive parameter values to the user or an audiologist for adapting parameter values of the hearing aid that are associated with the specific auditory situation.
