Auditory streaming and the continuity illusion.

چکیده
In the present experiment, auditory stream organization was investigated in the presence of perceptually restored continuity. It was found that auditory streaming processes tend to yield the same perceptual organization independently of the presence or absence of perceptual restoration. Other observations include the dominance of frequency proximity over trajectory as a perceptual organization principle, and the effect of harmonic enrichment on perceptual grouping.

Global not local masker features govern the auditory continuity illusion.
When an acoustic signal is temporarily interrupted by another sound, it is sometimes heard as continuing through, even when the signal is actually turned off during the interruption-an effect known as the "auditory continuity illusion." A widespread view is that the illusion can only occur when peripheral neural responses contain no evidence that the signal was interrupted. Here we challenge th...
متن کاملThe Continuity Illusion Does Not Depend on Attentional State: fMRI Evidence from Illusory Vowels
We investigate whether the neural correlates of the continuity illusion, as measured using fMRI, are modulated by attention. As we have shown previously, when two formants of a synthetic vowel are presented in an alternating pattern, the vowel can be identified if the gaps in each formant are filled with bursts of plausible masking noise, causing the illusory percept of a continuous vowel ("Ill...
متن کاملThe auditory continuity illusion: a parametric investigation and filter model.
A sound that is briefly interrupted by a silent gap is perceived as discontinuous. However, when the gap is filled with noise, the sound may be perceived as continuing through the noise. It has been shown that this continuity illusion depends on the masking of the omitted target sound, but the underlying mechanisms have yet to be quantified thoroughly. In this article, we systematically quantif...
متن کاملBaseline brain state predicts the occurrence of the auditory continuity illusion
19 Because acoustic landscapes are complex and rapidly changing, auditory systems have evolved 20 mechanisms that permit rapid detection of novel sounds, sound source segregation and perceptual 21 restoration of sounds obscured by noise. Perceptual restoration is particularly important in noisy 22 environments, because it allows organisms to track sounds over time even when they are masked. The...
متن کاملNeural correlates of attention and streaming in a perceptually multistable auditory illusion.
In a complex acoustic environment, acoustic cues and attention interact in the formation of streams within the auditory scene. In this study, a variant of the "octave illusion" [Deutsch (1974). Nature 251, 307-309] was used to investigate the neural correlates of auditory streaming, and to elucidate the effects of attention on the interaction between sequential and concurrent sound segregation ...
