Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for performing model-based cochlear implant programming (MOCIP) on a living subject with a cochlear implant (CI) to determine stimulation settings of a patient-customized electro-neural interface (ENI) model. The method includes: localizing an electrode array of the CI and intracochlear structures of the living subject to determine patient-specific electrode positions of the CI and a patient-specific anatomy shape; generating a CI electric field model based on the patient-specific electrodes positions of the CI and the patient-specific anatomy shape; and establishing an auditory nerve fiber (ANF) bundle model using the CI electric field model, and estimating neural health of the living subject using the ANF bundle model applications of the same.
