Efficient coding in human auditory perception.
Natural sounds possess characteristic statistical regularities. Recent research suggests that mammalian auditory processing maximizes information about these regularities in its internal representation while minimizing encoding cost [Smith, E. C. and Lewicki, M. S. (2006). Nature (London) 439, 978-982]. Evidence for this "efficient coding hypothesis" comes largely from neurophysiology and theor...
متن کاملFlexible Information Coding in Human Auditory Cortex during Perception, Imagery, and STM of Complex Sounds
Auditory cortex is the first cortical region of the human brain to process sounds. However, it has recently been shown that its neurons also fire in the absence of direct sensory input, during memory maintenance and imagery. This has commonly been taken to reflect neural coding of the same acoustic information as during the perception of sound. However, the results of the current study suggest ...
متن کاملDirectional Perception in the Human Auditory System
Human perception of auditory direction was tested in the horizontal and mid-sagittal planes. When the auricular funneling and baffling effects are bypassed by extensions of the ear canals, the accuracy of perception worsens significantly. Providing artificial baffling posterior to the extensions of the ear canals improves perception. The accuracy of perception also worsens when the auricular fu...
متن کاملAuditory coding of human movement kinematics.
Although visual perception is dominant on motor perception, control and learning, auditory information can enhance and modulate perceptual as well as motor processes in a multifaceted manner. During last decades new methods of auditory augmentation had been developed with movement sonification as one of the most recent approaches expanding auditory movement information also to usually mute phas...
متن کاملHuman Auditory Perception of Pulsed Radiofrequency Energy
Human auditory perception of pulses of radiofrequency (RF) energy is a well-established phenomenon that is dependent upon the energy in a single pulse and not on average power density. RF-induced sounds can be characterized as the perception of subtle sounds because, in general, a quiet environment is required for the sounds to be heard. The sound is similar to other common sounds such as a cli...
