Hearing aid for recording data and learning therefrom

Abstract

The present invention relates to a hearing aid logging data and learning from these data. The hearing aid (10, 100) comprises an input unit (12) converting an acoustic environment to an electric signal; an output unit (16) converting an processed electric signal to a sound pressure; a signal processing unit (14) interconnecting the input and output unit, and generating the processed electric signal from the electric signal according to a setting; a user interface (18) converting user interaction to a control signal thereby controlling the setting; and finally a memory unit (20) comprising a control section storing a set of control parameters associated with the acoustic environment, and a data logger section receiving data from the input unit (12), the signal processing unit (14), and the user interface (18); and wherein said signal processing unit (14) configures the setting according to the set of control parameters and comprises a learning controller adapted to adjust the set of control parameters according to the data in the data logging section.
