Abstract

Babies cry for the same reason adults talk: to let others know about their needs or problems. The infant cry contains, besides, more information about the baby, particularly, information about the health of the infant (e.g. airway affections cause different sounds from the original). Thus, we can conclude on diseases from the modified cry signal. In this study 35 infants with hearing disorders and 35 healthy babies are tested. The author compares several attributes of the cry in the time domain between the two groups.
