Abstract: A method trains a speaker recognition unit of a hearing aid of a user, wherein the hearing aid is connected to a communication device of the user, for carrying out a remote conversation between the user of the hearing aid and a conversation partner of the user. An audio signal of the conversation partner is received by the communication device for output to the user. A speaker ID is assigned to the conversation partner, wherein a number of speech samples of the conversation partner is extracted from the audio signal. The speech samples are assigned to the speaker ID and form a training data set jointly therewith. The speaker recognition unit of the hearing aid is trained using the training data set in order to recognize the conversation partner in future.

Abstract: A method operates a hearing aid, in particular a classic hearing aid. The hearing aid includes an input transducer, a signal processing device, and an output transducer. Wherein an occurrence of a comb filter effect is determined by the signal processing device, and wherein a countermeasure is controlled by the signal processing device as a function of the determined occurrence of the comb filter effect.

Abstract: A method for transmitting information relating to a hearing device, in particular a hearing aid, to an external device. The hearing device is thereby placed in an immediate environment of the external device and the hearing device broadcasts a generally receivable, unencrypted first information item containing metadata about the hearing device and/or access data. The unencrypted first information item is received by the external device. The external device changes its operating mode directly or indirectly as a result of the first information item and continues to be operated with the modified operating mode.
