title: Automatic removal of sonomotor waves from auditory brainstem responses.
abstract: We have developed a computerized technique for automatic detection and removal of sonomotor waves (SMWs) from auditory brainstem responses (ABRs). Our approach is based on adaptive decomposition using a redundant set of Gaussian and 1-cycle-limited Gabor functions. In order to find optimal parameters and evaluate the efficiency of the methods, simulated data were first used before applying it to clinical data. Results were good and confirmed by an expert with years of clinical experience in ABR evaluation.
