In mammals, environmental sounds stimulate the auditory receptor, the cochlea, via
vibrations of the stapes, the innermost of the middle ear ossicles. These vibrations produce …

Georg Békésy laid the foundation for cochlear mechanics, foremost by demonstrating the
traveling wave that is the substrate for mammalian cochlear mechanical processing. He …

Tinnitus and oversensitivity to sound are common and hitherto incurable, distressing
conditions that affect a substantial number of the population. Pawel Jastreboff's discovery of …

It is commonly believed that the exceptional sensitivity of mammalian hearing depends on
outer hair cells which generate forces for amplifying sound-induced basilar membrane …

The spatial variations of the intricate cytoarchitecture, fluid scalae, and mechano-electric
transduction in the mammalian cochlea have long been postulated to provide the organ with …

The view seems to prevail that the frequency range of hearing is determined by the
properties of the outer and middle ears. We argue that this view is an oversimplification, in …

Ultralow-power sensing with inference functionality embedded in sensor nodes is essential
for enabling the emerging pervasive intelligence. For acoustic inference sensing, the feature …

When stimulated by tones, the ear appears to emit tones of its own, stimulus-frequency
otoacoustic emissions (SFOAEs). SFOAEs were measured in 17 chinchillas and their group …

Responses to broadband Gaussian white noise were recorded in auditory-nerve fibers of
deeply anesthetized chinchillas and analyzed by computation of zeroth-, first-, and second …
