Now available in a sixth edition, An Introduction to the Psychology of Hearing is the leading
textbook in the field of auditory perception, also known as psychoacoustics. The textbooks …

A model of computational auditory signal-processing and perception that accounts for
various aspects of simultaneous and nonsimultaneous masking in human listeners is …

This paper reviews the hypothesis of harmonic cancellation according to which an
interfering sound is suppressed or canceled on the basis of its harmonicity (or periodicity in …

People with sensorineural hearing loss generally suffer from a reduced ability to understand
speech in complex acoustic listening situations, particularly when background noise is …

Although the amount of inharmonic energy (noise) present in a human voice is an important
determinant of vocal quality, little is known about the perceptual interaction between …

This paper proposes improvements to the Aures' tonality metric, which can be used for
estimating the frequency masking of complex sounds. The perception of tonality has been …

This article focuses on estimating relative transfer functions (RTFs) for beamforming
applications. Traditional methods often assume that spectra are uncorrelated, an …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is one of the principal neuroimaging
techniques for studying human audition, but it generates an intense background sound …

Normal-hearing listeners' ability to “hear out” the pitch of a target harmonic complex tone
(HCT) was tested with simultaneous HCT or noise maskers, all bandpass-filtered into the …

This experiment examined the partial masking of periodic complex tones by a background of
noise, and vice versa. The tones had a fundamental frequency (F 0) of 62.5 or 250 Hz, and …
