Abstract
Objectives: To improve the reliability and efficiency of CAEP-related applications by improving the specificity and sensitivity of objective CAEP detection methods.
Design: The methods included in the assessment were Hotelling’s T2 test, the Fmp, four modified q-sample statistics, and various template-based detection methods (calculated between the ensemble coherent average and some predefined template), including the correlation coefficient, covariance, and dynamic time-warping (DTW). The assessment was carried out using both simulations and a CAEP threshold series collected from 23 adults with normal hearing.
Results: The most sensitive method was DTW, evaluated using the bootstrap, with maximum increases in test sensitivity (relative to the conventional Hotelling’s T2 test) of up to 30%. An important factor underlying the performance of DTW is that the template adopted for the analysis correlates well with the subjects’ CAEP.
Conclusion: When subjects’ CAEP morphology is approximately known before the test, then the DTW algorithm provides a highly sensitive method for CAEP detection.
