Invariance to background noise as a signature of non-primary auditory cortex

AJE Kell, JH McDermott - Nature communications, 2019‏ - nature.com
Despite well-established anatomical differences between primary and non-primary auditory
cortex, the associated representational transformations have remained elusive. Here we …

Auditory figure-ground segregation is impaired by high visual load

K Molloy, N Lavie, M Chait - Journal of Neuroscience, 2019‏ - jneurosci.org
Figure-ground segregation is fundamental to listening in complex acoustic environments. An
ongoing debate pertains to whether segregation requires attention or is “automatic” and …

Illusory sound texture reveals multi-second statistical completion in auditory scene analysis

R McWalter, JH McDermott - Nature communications, 2019‏ - nature.com
Sound sources in the world are experienced as stable even when intermittently obscured,
implying perceptual completion mechanisms that “fill in” missing sensory information. We …

Neural signatures of the processing of temporal patterns in sound

B Herrmann, IS Johnsrude - Journal of Neuroscience, 2018‏ - jneurosci.org
The ability to detect regularities in sound (ie, recurring structure) is critical for effective
perception, enabling, for example, change detection and prediction. Two seemingly …

Original speech and its echo are segregated and separately processed in the human brain

J Gao, H Chen, M Fang, N Ding - PLoS Biology, 2024‏ - journals.plos.org
Speech recognition crucially relies on slow temporal modulations (< 16 Hz) in speech.
Recent studies, however, have demonstrated that the long-delay echoes, which are …
