This was done by using a nonlinear hearing aid (HA) simulation, shadow filtering, and adding an electro-acoustic (EA) weighting function to address frequency overlap across ears. The extended model predicts speech-in-noise performance of simulated bimodal and single-sided deaf CI subjects with high accuracy, including their spatial release of masking for different spatial scenarios. The best fitting EA function indicates the importance of electrically versus acoustically stimulated ear to the model. \textcopyright 2018 The Author(s). Published by S.
