dc.description.abstractAuditory brainstem response (ABR) has become a routine clinical tool in neurological and audiological assessment. ABR measurement process with ensemble averaging is very time-consuming and uncomfortable for subjects due to the more repetition of single trials. This condition also restricts the wide usability of ABR in clinical applications. Therefore, the reduction in repetitions has a great importance in ABR measurements. In this study, 488 ABR responses are used for creating two different data sets. The first set is created conventionally by ensemble averaging of 1,024 single trials for each ABR pattern. The second set is obtained from the first estimated 64 single trials of the same records for each ABRs. Estimation is realized by using a nonlinear adaptive filtering algorithm. In classification stage, a powerful classifier integrated with a feature selection algorithm is performed for each data set. In result, the classification performance for estimated ABR data with 64 repetitions is better than the classification performance of the ensemble averaged data with 1,024 repetitions. The proposed system is resulted in an accuracy of 96% for estimated ABRs. So, the proposed system can effectively be used for threshold detection in auditory assessment providing a high accuracy. While the obtained results contribute to the practical ABR usage in clinics, the great significance of it arises from the reduction in repetitions via estimation of ABRs.
