Application of Bayesian Active Learning to the Estimation of Auditory Filter Shapes Using the Notched-Noise Method.
Time-efficient hearing tests are important in both clinical practice and research studies. This particularly applies to notched-noise tests, which are rarely done in clinical practice because of the time required....
Tonotopic Selectivity in Cats and Humans

We describe a scalp-recorded measure of tonotopic selectivity, the "cortical onset response" (COR) and compare the results between humans and cats. The COR results, in turn, were compared with psychophysical masked-detection...
A Hearing-Model-Based Active-Learning Test for the Determination of Dead Regions.
This article describes a Bayesian active-learning procedure for estimating the edge frequency, fe, of a dead region, that is, a region in the cochlea with no or very few functioning inner hair cells or neurons. The method is...
No Influence of Musicianship on the Effect of Contralateral Stimulation on Frequency Selectivity.
The efferent system may control the gain of the cochlea and thereby influence frequency selectivity. This effect can be assessed using contralateral stimulation (CS) applied to the ear opposite to that used to assess frequency...
The experiential blink
The attentional blink (AB) represents a cognitive deficit in reporting the second of two targets (T2), when that second target appears 200-600 msec after the first (T1). However, it is unclear how this paradigm impacts the...
Context-dependent similarity effects in letter recognition.
In visual word recognition tasks, digit primes that are visually similar to letter string targets (e.g., 4/A, 8/B) are known to facilitate letter identification relative to visually dissimilar digits (e.g., 6/A, 7/B); in...
The effect of a coding strategy that removes temporally masked pulses on speech perception by cochlear implant users.
Speech recognition in noisy environments remains a challenge for cochlear implant (CI) recipients. Unwanted charge interactions between current pulses, both within and between electrode channels, are likely to impair...

Orthographic and phonological priming effects in the same-different task.
Masked priming tasks have been used widely to study early orthographic processes-the coding of letter position and letter identity. Recently, using masked priming in the same-different task Lupker, Nakayama, and Perea (2015a)...

Improving the soundscape quality of urban areas exposed to aircraft noise by adding moving water and vegetation.
Unconscious priming dissociates 'free choice' from 'spontaneous urge' responses.
Advances in neuroscience offer the exciting prospect of understanding 'free' choices - the subject of the free will debate in philosophy. However, while physiological techniques and analysis have progressed rapidly to meet this...
No Effect of Musical Training on Frequency Selectivity Estimated Using Three Methods.
It is widely believed that the frequency selectivity of the auditory system is largely determined by processes occurring in the cochlea. If so, musical training would not be expected to influence frequency selectivity....

Cross-linguistic Influences on Sentence Accent Detection in Background Noise.
This paper investigates whether sentence accent detection in a non-native language is dependent on (relative) similarity between prosodic cues to accent between the non-native and the native language, and whether...
