Abstract
In one embodiment, a computer program product includes a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith. The program instructions are executable by a processing circuit to cause the processing circuit to receive collected data from one or more data collection devices, the collected data being aggregated over at least one month and comprising audio data including first voice input of a user of the one or more data collection devices. The program instructions also cause the processing circuit to store the audio data to a computer readable storage medium; determine an identity of the user based on comparing second voice input to the first voice input; and analyze the audio data for indications of hearing loss in the user over the period of time. The analysis includes determining a user's emotion during production of the audio input.
