• Multi-Touch Sound Storm: An Auditory Experiment

  
  Trends Updates — Authority: 589
  If you are into weird music or ever have experimented with sound technology, you would know that sound consists of waves, and that every note has a frequency. When the sound note is below or above human perceptive abilities, that can’t be heard. However, thanks to technology, you can recreate many sounds that ...

• Phonemic restoration by hearing-impaired listeners with mild to moderate sensorineural hearing loss

  
  COMD News — Authority: 156
  The auditory system is capable of perceptually restoring inaudible portions of speech. This restoration may be compromised as a result of hearing impairment, particularly if it is combined with advanced age, because of degradations in the bottom-up and top-down processes. To test this hypothesis, phonemic restoration ...

• Neuropsychological correlates of auditory perceptual inference: A mismatch negativity (MMN) study

  
  COMD News — Authority: 156
  The mismatch negativity (MMN) component of the auditory event-related potential can be used to study automatic perceptual inference. This study was designed to explore “Conditional Inference” in the MMN system – the capacity of the auditory system to use current input to switch between inference models in ...

• Structural Analysis of Heschl’s Gyrus in Schizophrenia Patients with Auditory Hallucinations

  
  COMD News — Authority: 156
  Background/Aims: Heschl’s gyrus (HG) is functionally involved in the genesis of auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH). This dysfunction seems to be structurally facilitated. The aim of the study was to analyze macrostructural features of HG in a group of patients reporting AVH who demonstrated white matter diffusion ...

• Neural networks involved in voluntary and involuntary vocal pitch regulation in experienced singers

  
  COMD News — Authority: 156
  In an fMRI experiment, we tested experienced singers with singing tasks to investigate neural correlates of voluntary and involuntary vocal pitch regulation. We shifted the pitch of auditory feedback (±25 or 200 cents), and singers either: 1) ignored the shift and maintained their vocal pitch or 2) changed their ...

• An electrophysiological correlate of voice processing in 4- to 5-year-old children

  
  COMD News — Authority: 156
  Abstract Cortical auditory evoked potentials were studied in responses to voice and environmental sounds in 4- to 5-year old children. A specific response to voice was dissociated from the response to environmental sounds. It appeared as a positive deflection recorded at right fronto-temporal sites and beginning ...

• A Computational Model to Predict Changes in Breathiness Resulting From Variations in Aspiration Noise Level

  
  COMD News — Authority: 156
  Perception of breathy voice quality is cued by a number of acoustic changes including an increase in aspiration noise level (AH) and spectral slope. Changes in AH in a vowel may be evaluated through measures such as the harmonic-to-noise ratio, cepstral peak prominence (CPP), or via auditory measures such as the ...
