Abstract

Millions of people across the world are affected by hearing loss and early detection is very important for effective intervention. The traditional hearing screening methods are effective but they often rely on specialized equipment and clinical resources, making them less accessible to common people. Hearing loss is a state that affects the ability to communicate, socially interact and overall quality of life. The advancements in recent years have aimed to enhance the accessibility and efficiency of hearing tests, mainly in remote areas. The accurate classification of hearing loss is essential for effective detection and treatment in audiology. This study presents a deep learning (DL)-based approach based on a feedforward neural network (FNN). This paper focuses on common causes like cerumen impaction, otitis media, and otosclerosis. The study tries to explore ways to improve the diagnosis of hearing loss. The goal is to develop solutions that make hearing screenings more accessible and cost-effective for populations with limited access to healthcare resources. The results show the advantages of DL models in supporting automated accurate classification of hearing loss for intelligent diagnostic systems in audiological healthcare.
